A rich historic heritage symbolized by its cellars and vaulted galleries that stretch beneath Beaune.
Patriarche has been the key ambassador for the prestigious Burgundy appellations and their great terroirs.
As négociant-éleveur, Patriarche’s scope of action is large: it starts with the supervision of the plots and selecting grapes and continues by vinifying and maturing the wines. It is during the ageing process that the wines develop their substance and structure, creating their true potential.
Each of these stages give the style, identity and signature of the great house of Patriarche, which today houses 3 million bottles in its cellars.

Patriarche has forged long-standing relationships with its partner properties, some of which go back over generations. 80% of the winegrowers maintain their loyal collaboration with Patriarche, year in, year out. They all understand our style and requirements very well, which allows them to present suitable lots for our consideration. From December onwards, each lot is selected according to several criteria. First, tasting is indispensable to select the highest quality wine. Then, laboratory analyses verify that the lot conforms to the appellation’s specifications. Its potential for blending is also taken into account, as its organoleptic profile must bring harmony and balance to the whole.
With over 240 years of experience, Patriarche is one of the oldest established Négociant-Eleveurs in Burgundy.
