Company Description

Every year, consumers and professionals from more than 80 countries around the world visit Château de Pommard to learn about the world of wine from Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) professionals and taste the purest expressions of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir from villages along the Route des Grands Crus.

From the grape to the glass, guests experience Clos Marey-Monge, a geological marvel, and home to seven distinct clay and limestone-rich plots, now protected as one of the world heritage Climats of Burgundy by UNESCO.

Founded in 1726, Château de Pommard combines three hundred years of savoir-faire and the innovative vision of the Famille Carabello-Baum for the future.

Additional Information

Working Here

At Château de Pommard we embrace three core principles guiding everything we do: people care, earth care, and fair share.

With a mindset to balance resource consumption and resource regeneration, we can make better individual and collective choices. It is time. This holistic way of thinking comes from the field of permaculture.

Developed in response to unsustainable industrialized approaches, it has become popular in numerous areas, like agriculture, food science, healthcare, construction, economics, and sociology.

And now in hospitality.
