Key words: Finesse / Elegance / Fruity

The wine: From vines planted in at the end of the 1970s, this Gevrey-Chambertin highlighted the terroir of the “Au Vellé” climate. Oriented to the east and growing on stony soils mainly composed of clay, this plot adjoins in particular the Premiers Crus Champeaux and Les Cazetiers. This delicious vintage from Domaine Marchand-Grillot offers a pinot noir of great grace combining elegance and charm. On the palate, an infusion of red fruits (cherry, strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant) is presented, carried by a charming material. earthy notes and a very fine woodiness underline the whole with mastery. A very delicacy Gevrey-Chambertin which ends with a very beautiful length. Magnificent!

The estate: If the Marchand and Grillot families both had a great winemaking tradition before the year 1950, it was during this vintage and through a marriage that their forces definitively joined forces to form the domaine Marchand-Grillot. Today, brother and sister Étienne and Marion watch over a 12-hectare vineyard with their father Jacques, spread mainly over Gevrey-Chambertin but also over Morey-Saint-Denis and Chambolle-Musigny. The family philosophy is characterized by biosourced viticulture limiting interventionism in the vineyard and in the cellar. No synthetic pesticides or herbicides are used and the doses of added sulphites used are very moderate. The vinifications are also very gentle, bringing out the full potential of each terroir. Finesse and elegance are the key words here!
