At the heart of Beaune for eight centuries
From the « Maison du Chapitre » to the « Maison Jaffelin », a long history of wine.
The history of Jaffelin is intertwined with that of the Collegiate Church of Notre Dame in Beaune. Over the centuries, our cellars have housed the wines of the Collegiate Church and the princes of the Church. The Chapitre cellars changed hands in 1816, the year the Jaffelin brothers founded their wine merchant house. Today, just as they did eight centuries ago, our wines rest in the monastic tranquility of the Chapitre cellars.

2004, a new lease of life.
Conveying the soul of Beaune through our Burgundy fine wines
Jaffelin, the smallest of the great Burgundy wine houses as we like to remind people, entered a new chapter in its history in 2004, when we completely renovated our vat room and fitted it out with high precision equipment.
Marinette Garnier, our oenologist-winemaker, creates our "hand-made" wines in this magical location in the historical centre of Beaune.
Since then, Jaffelin continues to present the very best of the finest Burgundy terroirs within a comprehensive collection of wines, which are recognised in prestigious wine competitions and appreciated by connoisseurs around the world.
