Origine, précision et savoir-faire

Sourced 100% from Pinot Noir, this Grand Cru comes from vines of about 35 years anchored in brown limestone soils over a Bajocian clay base, with a superficial chalky horizon mixed with gravel. This mineral foundation, among Burgundy’s most prestigious, brings uprightness, energy and depth to the wine. Average yields reach 30 hl/ha, a guarantee of concentration. Harvesting is done by hand for meticulous grape selection. Vinification is traditional in open vats, allowing measured and precise extraction. Malolactic fermentation is carried out at 100%, then élevage lasts 10 to 12 months in new French oak barrels from the cooperage of Maison Louis Latour, with controlled toasting. The deep ruby colour, chiselled structure and harmonious integration of oak testify to this artisanal rigor serving the style.

Moments de service et accords d’exception

Serve this Chambertin Grand Cru between 16 and 17°C to reveal its nuances. It pairs magnificently with a venison stew, sautéed venison with pepper and celeriac purée, or an aged Soumaintrain. Large family feasts, intimate dinners and memorable celebrations will make it a welcome guest. Curious amateurs, discerning gastronomes or collectors will find here a privileged partner for seasonal fine cooking and rare moments.

Signature patrimoniale et réassurance
