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: Old vines
There are no specific regulations governing the term "vieilles vignes". After 20 to 25 years, the yields stabilize and tend to decrease, the vines are deeply rooted, and the grapes that come from them give richer, more concentrated, more sappy wines, expressing with more nuance the characteristics of their terroir. It is possible to find plots of vines that claim to be a century old.
