Domaine Simon Bize & Fils
Savigny-lès-Beaune
Located in Côte de Beaune, the Domaine Simon Bize is a renowned winery with a rich history. It has always been family-owned and cultivates some of the region's most prized vineyards of the appellation that showcase the unique characteristics of Savigny-lès-Beaune's terroir.
The story begins in 1880, when Simon Bize, the great-grandfather, started with a few vines. Over the years, each generation played a significant role in shaping the domain.
In 1918, the grandfather, also called Simon-Bize expanded the vineyards by purchasing new parcels and a few years later, his father transformed the domain, laying the foundation for future growth.
In 1950, a significant turning point occurred in the domain's history when Simon Bize, the father, made a decision, revolutionizing the estate's approach. This skilled winemaker chooses to bottle and sell his own wine, driven by a strong conviction in the importance of building direct relationships between the winemaker and their clients.
In 1972, Patrick Bize further developed his father’s goals. He built a cuverie, expanded the barrel cellars, and bought new parcels to offer a new, more extensive range of wines.
After Patrick's sudden passing in 2013, his wife Chisa, sister Marielle, and the entire team continued to pursue excellence, prioritizing sustainable vineyard practices and environmental stewardship.
