Sylvain Pitiot Clos de Tart

Sylvain Pitiot, a vigneron...
After training as a topography engineer, Sylvain Pitiot turned to viticulture as he worked during the harvest in Meursault, where he met his wife Valérie Poupon.
Working successively as a vigneron on the Domaine des Hospices de Beaune, vineyard manager, consultant, teacher, he finally became a wine estate manager. He ran a Côte de Nuits Grand Cru domain for twenty years. He is presently a wine consultant in France and abroad.
He published wall maps of the Côte de Beaune and the Côte de Nuits
and the Côte Chalonnaise. He is also co-author with Marie-Hélène Landrieu-Lussigny, of Climats et Lieux-dits des grands vignobles de Bourgogne and La Côte Chalonnaise (bi-lingual French-English book. Editions du Meurger, 2018).
He also created with Pierre Cohen-Tanugi, the ClimaVinea digital application (2015), including a selection of Domaines et Maisons, an Encyclopaedia and detailed maps of the Climats de Bourgogne, registered on the World Heritage list of UNESCO.

Marie-Hélène Landrieu-Lussigny, a Qualified teacher, holder of the Classics agrégation…
After graduating from Dijon University, at the Classics and Literature Faculty, she defended her Dissertation on Les lieux-dits dans le vignoble bourguignon. This Higher Post-Graduate Dissertation was published in 1983 by the Jeanne Laffitte Editions and Pierre Poupon himself wrote the preface.
After a full career as a French, Latin and Greek teacher, she retired and started to work with  Pierre Poupon and Sylvain Pitiot .She then published Climats et lieux-dits des Grands Vignobles de Bourgogne - Atlas et Histoire des noms de lieux (Éditions du Meurger) in 2012.This book is composed of a detailed cartography combined with a dictionary where she explains the origin, history and meaning of the names of  35 vine growing villages in the Côte de Nuits and the Côte de Beaune with their 1,453 Climats and lieux-dits.

 

Laurent Gotti, a journalist and wine taster...
After training as a journalist, Laurent Gotti entered the wine world in 1997 as he covered the Hospices de Beaune Wine Auction. The great atmosphere of the « trois glorieuses » opened up new horizons for him. He settled in Burgundy in 2000 and was hired as a journalist then an assistant editor for the Bourgogne Aujourd’hui magazine. He passed a Professional Certificate in Sensorial Analysis enabling him to share his discoveries as a wine consultant (A Portée de Vins, Prodégustation). He turned to freelance journalism in 2015, since then, he has contributed to several publications (La Revue du vin de France, Hachette Guide Book , En Magnum). Before that, as a fair recognition of his encounter with the Hospices de Beaune, he devoted his time to write a book on the subject that initiated his career: "Hospices de Beaune , the Saga of a winemaking Hospital (Féret editions).

 

Pierre Poupon (1917-2009), a writer...
Beginning his career as manager of his wife’s estate in Meursault then becoming a négociant in Beaune, he was also dedicated to reading and writing throughout his life , following the Latin precept: "Nulla dies sine linea" (not a day without a line). In a clear, precise style and with great sensitivity, he used his knowledge of terroirs and his passion for tasting to present the wines of Burgundy as objects of art and culture. He was co-author, with Pierre Forgeot, of the first ten editions of this work which was first published in 1952.
