The wine region of Gevrey-Chambertin
The Champs-Élysées of Burgundy in the Côte de Nuits: signature Pinot Noir reigns exclusively in reds — intense ruby with carmine glints, complete and structured with strawberry, cherry, blackberry, violet and a liquorice touch, undergrowth and dried fruit on ageing, firm yet silky tannins marrying power and elegance. More robust than its Côte de Beaune neighbours. Village AOC (1936) over Gevrey and Brochon, 26 Premiers Crus and 9 Grands Crus including legendary Chambertin and Clos de Bèze.
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: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
