Luminous aromatics of wild cherry, violet, and blood orange lead into a strikingly textured palate that balances lavish, blue-edge fruit with a satiny, supple grace. Resonant of its chalky Bajocian roots, the wine finishes with a piercing oyster-shell minerality and the high-definition tension that defines this cerebral Grand Cru.

Sourced from the 2.69-hectare parcel of Griotte-Chambertin—the smallest and arguably most cerebral Grand Cru in Gevrey. Its east-facing orientation and protected hollow allow for a longer, cooler ripening window compared to the broader sun exposure of neighboring Le Chambertin.

Harvested during the early morning hours of the September to capture rich fruit notes and perfumed florals, the wine remained elegant and balanced, aided by the natural vine hydration from early spring rains. Crafted in traditional methods, indigenous spontaneous fermenation and aged in French oak.

Griotte-Chambertin is a prestigious Grand Cru vineyard in Gevrey-Chambertin, classified in 1937, and is one of the smallest in Burgundy at about 2.73 hectares, making its wines rare and highly sought after. Planted exclusively to Pinot Noir and located between Chambertin and Chambertin Clos de Bèze, it shares elite terroir but produces wines known more for elegance and aromatic finesse than power. The name “Griotte” refers to sour cherries, a nod to the wine’s classic profile of red cherry, floral notes, silky tannins, and limestone-driven freshness, with the ability to age 20–40 years while often being approachable earlier than its more muscular neighbors.
