Allen Meadows of Burghound writes: "Pierre Ramonet arrived in Burgundy in the late 1920s and began to earn money by buying and vinifying grapes. Land values were low at the time, and he began to accumulate vineyard plots with his first purchase within the Ruchottes vineyard in 1934. The crown jewel of his acquisitions would occur in 1978 when he purchased a plot of Montrachet. He passed the reins shortly thereafter to his son André, who died in 2011, and subsequently to his grandchildren, who are the current owners, Noël and Jean-Claude who have tended the vineyards since 1984. They produce 24 appellation wines from 16.2 ha, located primarily in Chassagne-Montrachet and Puligny-Montrachet."
