Georges Noëllat was the nephew of Charles Noëllat, once the owner of one of Vosne's finest domaines, a domaine that made major contributions to Domaine Jean-Jacques Confuron and Hudelot-Noëllat, and even formed the bulk of Domaine Leroy.
From 1990, Domaine Georges Noëllat sold its production to Jadot and Drouhin for 20 years. Then, in 2010, 20-year-old Maxime Cheurlin arrived and took over the management of
his grandmother's estate. Cheurlin grew up in Champagne, but Burgundy wine seems to run in his veins: he is a nephew of the Jayer family and a cousin of Emmanuel Rouget's children. He completed his winemaking studies at the Lycée Viticole in Beaune, with placements at Domaine Emmanuel Rouget and Domaine Gros Frère et Sœur in 2009.
