Interesting Facts
Gevrey-Chambertin is renowned for its wide variety of terroirs and is an appellation of the Côtes de Nuits, renowned both for its size and for its excellent wines. There is no white wine here, only red Pinot Noir is cultivated. The vines grow on marl soil covered with scree and red silt from the plateau. Gravel gives finesse and delicacy to wines, while clay marls, rich in shellfish fossils, give the wine firmness and character. Exposure takes place within 14-16 months in French oak barrels (20-30% - new).
