Gevrey-Chambertin
In the north of the Côte de Nuits, Gevrey-Chambertin opens onto a succession of some of Burgundy’s most prestigious terroirs.
Gevrey-Chambertin
The terroir
Parcel
Between 280 and 380 meters above sea level, brown limestone and calcic soils lie on marls covered with scree and red silt washed down from the plateau. Exposures range from east to south-east.
Grape variety
Pinot Noir
Our know-how
From vineyard to cellar
Winemaking
After hand harvesting and sorting, 70% of the grapes are destemmed and 30% kept as whole clusters, then placed in stainless steel tanks for alcoholic fermentation. The wine is aged for 14 months, 20% in new barrels and 80% in barrels that have already held 2 to 3 wines.
