This red Burgundy is produced using certified organic viticulture methods and grown on deep clay-limestone soils. The planting density of 10,000 vines per hectare promotes optimal concentration in the grapes. Fermentation takes place in truncated-cone wooden vats for 15 to 20 days, with partial destemming, followed by aging for 12 to 18 months in previously used oak barrels, which gives the wine beautiful complexity and a balanced structure.

François de Nicolay
In the heart of the Côte de Beaune, François de Nicolay, at the helm of Domaine Chandon de Briailles, manages the vineyard biodynamically, with constant attention to soil balance and precise ripeness. This approach aims to preserve the natural expression of the terroirs, without seeking artificial effects or technical over-elaboration.
The Pinot Noirs are vinified with gentle extractions, prioritizing fine texture and fruit purity. The wines exhibit elegant profiles, characterized by clear red fruit and a balanced persistence, with integrated tannins and great clarity. The aging processes remain understated, designed to support the structure without dominating the wine.
The white wines, produced in smaller quantities, display a restrained mineral tension and a linear texture, true to the soil identity of the Côte de Beaune. The entire production process is distinguished by a deliberate restraint and great precision.
