Nicolas Rossignol is the family's fifth generation of winegrowers in Volnay. He has been in charge of vinification since 1994 on the family estate Rossignol-Jeanniard.
After his studies in high school of wine making in Beaune, Nicolas gained experience with different estates like Domaine Joseph Voillot in Volnay, Domaine Louis Latour in Ardèche, Domaine du Vieux Télégraphe in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Boschendal in South Africa, and at Château La Cardonne, managed by Château Lafite Rotschild, in Bordeaux.
In 1997, he created his own estate with 3 hectares across the villages of Volnay, Pommard, Beaune, Aloxe-Corton and Pernand-Vergelesses. The vineyard stretches now over 17 hectares across 30 different appellations.
Nicolas produces wines using carefully sorted grapes from vineyards grown using traditional winemaking techniques inspired by biodynamics.
The vineyard is managed using reasoned viticulture methods, taking account of the lunar influence, both during cultivation and the production (elevage) of the wine. No chemical herbicides are used. Soil maintenance is ensured through light ploughing.
