History - Domaines Mugneret-Gibourg et Georges Mugneret

<h1>Domaines Mugneret-Gibourg et Georges Mugneret</h1> <h3>History</h3> A domain passed down from father to daughters and, perhaps one day, from mothers to daughters Mugneret is a well-known name among winemakers in the Côte de Nuits, particularly in Vosne-Romanée, where it has existed for many generations. The name Gibourg has its origins in the plains of the Saône River, among grain farmers, before the family settled in Vosne-Romanée at the beginning of the century. Jeanne Gibourg (1906-1997) married André Mugneret (1905-1986) and together they created Domaine MUGNERET-GIBOURG in 1933. Georges Mugneret, their only son (1929-1988, see photo) chose the medical field and became an opthamologist in Dijon. He quickly decided, however, to pursue the family profession in parallel with his own career, enlarging and enhancing the family domain with successive purchases of parcels in his own name. Thus was created the Domaine Georges MUGNERET. Dr. Mugneret met his future wife Jacqueline in 1958, while serving in Algeria. Upon their return to France they had two daughters, Marie-Christine in 1959 and Marie-Andrée in 1968. In 1988, following a long illness, Georges Mugneret died, and Jacqueline bravely took over with Marie-Christine, who resigned her position as a pharmacist to specialize in oenology. Marie-Andrée joined them several years later, after having earned her diploma in oenology. The domain today is headed by Jacqueline, Marie-Christine, and Marie-Andrée Mugneret. <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/contact.php' title='Contact'>Contact</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/distributors.php' title='Distributors'>Distributors</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/history.php' title='History'>History</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/index.php' title='Home'>Home</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news.php' title='News'>News</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/our-wines.php' title='Our Wines'>Our Wines</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/press-review.php' title='Press Review'>Press Review</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/the-domain.php' title='The Domain'>The Domain</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-philosophie.php' title='Viticulture & Vinification - Philosophie'>Viticulture & Vinification - Philosophie</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-wine.php' title='Viticulture & Vinification - The Wine'>Viticulture & Vinification - The Wine</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/viticulture-vinification-vigne.php' title='Viticulture et Vinification - La Vigne'>Viticulture et Vinification - La Vigne</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/women-of-domain.php' title='Women of the domain'>Women of the domain</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-14-bourgogne-1996.php' title='Bourgogne 1996'>Bourgogne 1996</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-13-bourgogne-1997.php' title='Bourgogne 1997'>Bourgogne 1997</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-12-bourgogne-1998.php' title='Bourgogne 1998'>Bourgogne 1998</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-11-bourgogne-1999.php' title='Bourgogne 1999'>Bourgogne 1999</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-10-bourgogne-2000.php' title='Bourgogne 2000'>Bourgogne 2000</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-9-bourgogne-2001.php' title='Bourgogne 2001'>Bourgogne 2001</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-8-bourgogne-2002.php' title='Bourgogne 2002'>Bourgogne 2002</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-7-bourgogne-2003.php' title='Bourgogne 2003'>Bourgogne 2003</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-6-bourgogne-2004.php' title='Bourgogne 2004'>Bourgogne 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-5-bourgogne-2005.php' title='Bourgogne 2005'>Bourgogne 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-15-chambolle-musigny-1er-cru-les-feusselottes-2005.php' title='Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru Les Feusselottes 2005'>Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru 'Les Feusselottes' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-16-clos-vougeot-2005.php' title='Clos Vougeot 2005'>Clos Vougeot 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news-1016-direct-from-the-cellar-and-the-vineyards.php' title='Direct from the cellar and the vineyards'>Direct from the cellar and the vineyards</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-23-echezeaux-2003.php' title='Echezeaux 2003'>Echezeaux 2003</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-17-echezeaux-2005.php' title='Echezeaux 2005'>Echezeaux 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-22-echezeaux-2005.php' title='Echezeaux 2005'>Echezeaux 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-20-nuits-saint-georges-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-18-nuits-saint-georges-1er-cru-les-chaignots-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Chaignots 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Chaignots' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-19-nuits-saint-georges-1er-cru-les-vignes-rondes-2005.php' title='Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru Les Vignes rondes 2005'>Nuits-Saint-Georges 1er Cru 'Les Vignes rondes' 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/news-50002-reservations-for-the-2007-vintage.php' title='Reservations for the 2007 vintage'>Reservations for the 2007 vintage</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-21-ruchottes-chambertin-2005.php' title='Ruchottes-Chambertin 2005'>Ruchottes-Chambertin 2005</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-1-vosne-romanee-2004.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2004'>Vosne-Romanée 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-25-vosne-romanee-2004.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2004'>Vosne-Romanée 2004</a> <a href='http://www.mugneret-gibourg.com/en/wine-2-vosne-romanee-2005.php' title='Vosne-Romanée 2005'>Vosne-Romanée 2005</a>
