CHAMBERTIN CLOS DE BEZE GRAND CRU JOSEPH DROUHIN 2018 

With 80 hectares, Domaine Joseph Drouhin is one of the largest in the region. It is distributed throughout Burgundy: Chablis (38 hectares), Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune (38,5 hectares), Côte Chalonnaise (3,5 hectares), and includes a majority of Grands Crus and Premiers Crus, planted with two Burgundy grape varieties: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

The Chambertin-Clos de Bèze vineyard is located north of the Côte de Nuits.
The monks of Bèze became owners of land in Gevrey in 630. They then founded this enclosure which they surrounded by walls. The area will never change...Only the walls have disappeared!

Originally from Champagne, Alexis de Benoist settled in 2010 as an artisan winemaker in the family property to reinstate the culture of the vine, interrupted for a century, and reconnect with its history. Since then, the family has regained its title of winemaker.

Today, he cultivates 9,5 hectares of vines spread over two wine regions: the Mâconnais and the Beaujolais.

The intention is to harmonize the grape variety and its terroir to obtain wines with character. Anxious to preserve the environment and the quality of his wines, Alexis de Benoist has chosen to focus his efforts on the vine, favoring traditional agriculture and farming methods linked to observation.

In this 30 to 80 year old vineyard, the harvest is done by hand. The grapes are thus harvested healthy, at maturity and remain intact on arrival at the vat room for vinification in whole bunches.

The choice of traditional vinification and aging aims to preserve the freshness of the fruit, while retaining structure, in order to produce an expressive, balanced and delicate wine for laying down.

Yield / 45 hl/ha
Harvest / Sorting the harvest in the vineyard with the pickers
Vinification / Between 10 and 15 days of maceration in vats, followed by fermentation between 24 and 28°C
