Grape variety: Pinot Noir
Tasting notes: This beautiful Savigny Premier Cru is surprisingly rich on the nose, with notes of black cherry, plum, and cedar, followed by a spicy palate with long, velvety tannins.
From 30-year-old vines grown on clay-limestone soils; aged for 16 months in barrels.
🍷 Serving temperature: 16–17°C
François de Nicolay is co-manager of Domaine Chandon de Briailles with his sister Claude. Upon returning to his Burgundian roots in the 2000s, he envisioned a small-scale négociant business focused on vinification, ageing, and bottling. Just like at his family estate, where organic and biodynamic practices have long been a priority, all grape and must sourcing for this project follows the same philosophy.
Based on the principle that great wines can only come from great grapes, this micro-négociant house produces pure wines without additives. Once the musts or wines are purchased, they are aged in a traditional cellar in Savigny-Lès-Beaune. The hands-on, artisanal approach allows François to avoid adding sulphur, preserving the wine’s natural freshness and vitality.
