Discover the grape variety: Pinot noir

Elegant reds, light in colour with silky tannins, showing strawberry, cherry and raspberry aromas, evolving to forest floor, mushroom and spice with age. Fresh acidity, delicate finish. Star of the Côte d'Or (Romanée-Conti, Chambertin, Volnay), pillar of Champagne (Blanc de Noirs) and signature of Oregon, Central Otago and Sonoma Coast. An early-ripening Burgundian variety, one of the world's greatest.

The wine region of Clos de la Roche Grand Cru

Largest Grand Cru of Morey-Saint-Denis (16. 9 ha) in the Cote de Nuits, 100% Pinot Noir: deep red combining the power of neighbouring Gevrey-Chambertin and the grace of Chambolle-Musigny — dense ruby robe, nose of black cherry, blackberry, raspberry then truffle, undergrowth, leather and spices at maturity. Hard limestone soils over marly subsoil, east-facing mid-slope. Structured and tannic when young, silky and complex with age, can age 15-30 years.


The wine region of Burgundy

Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.

The word of the wine: Licking

Operation consisting in sanitizing a barrel by introducing a wick of ignited sulphur which produces a release of sulphurous gas.
