Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin, the quintessence of Côte de Nuits

A prestigious red wine in the heart of Burgundy

Located in the northern Côte de Nuits, the village of Gevrey-Chambertin stands as a true gem of Burgundy’s wine heritage. It owes its renown to the nobility of its emblematic grape, the Pinot Noir, which expresses exceptional depth in this unique terroir. This distinguished cru is a must for any connoisseur of Burgundy red wines.

A mosaic of terroirs with unique expressions

The vineyards of Gevrey-Chambertin stretch across varied soils of clay, limestone, and marl. This geological diversity fosters wines of rich aromatic complexity. Esteemed climats such as Clos Saint-Jacques and Lavaux Saint-Jacques are celebrated for their age-worthy, powerful yet refined wines of remarkable finesse.

A climate tailor-made for Pinot Noir

The continental climate of Côte de Nuits, marked by distinct seasons, is ideal for Pinot Noir. The diurnal temperature variation helps grapes develop nuanced aromas while maintaining vibrant acidity. Each vintage brings new facets to this singular terroir, from sun-kissed fruit to more structured, age-worthy expressions.

A distinctive and elegant wine style

Gevrey-Chambertin wines are known for their deep color, aromas of dark fruits, sweet spices, and forest floor, along with a firm tannic structure. They age gracefully, evolving into complex, elegant wines. This style reflects the grandeur of local Grand Crus, notably Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze.

Food pairings and tasting occasions

Pinot Noir from Gevrey-Chambertin pairs beautifully with roasted red meats, game birds, or slow-cooked dishes like beef bourguignon. It also complements aged cheeses such as Époisses. Ideal for elegant meals or to cellar for future special occasions.
