History
Louis Chenu Père & Filles is a small estate in Savigny-lès-Beaune — a commune northwest of Beaune whose vineyards divide between two distinct slopes flanking the Rhoin valley, producing Pinot Noirs that tend to be lighter and earlier-drinking than their Beaune neighbors. Founding history is not widely documented in public sources. The "Père & Filles" name suggests a father-and-daughters partnership, a configuration seen at several small family domaines across the Côte de Beaune.
Winemaking Approach
Four parcels, all premiers crus within Savigny-lès-Beaune. The estate farms a meaningful holding in Aux Clous (1.78 ha) alongside smaller plots in Les Lavières, Les Hauts Jarrons, and Les Talmettes. Detailed winemaking information is not widely available, but the estate follows the standard domaine model of parcel-by-parcel bottling.
