7. 31 ha Grand Cru in Gevrey-Chambertin (Côte de Nuits) adjoining Chambertin to the south, 100% Pinot Noir: nearly flat, cooled by the winds of the Grisard combe — the freshest of Gevrey's Grands Crus. Reds of airy finesse and aromatic precision, more perfumed and delicate than Chambertin. Bright ruby robe, aromas of red and black fruits, violet, rose petal and undergrowth.
Fine calcareous stony soils, ageing potential 10–20+ years.
Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
wines from the region of Latricières-Chambertin Grand Cru go well with generally quite well with dishes of beef, veal or game (deer, venison) such as recipes of feijoada ( portuguese cassoulet ), veal tagine with prunes or rabbit on the barbecue.
