Product description
Soil: Gravel mixed with clay
Site: On the Mont Battois hillside, facing Beaune, the name "Grèves" derives from the sandy and gravely soil. Separated from the Clos des Fèves by a narrow path this Chanson vineyard covers 2 hectares
The Vintage 2017: After a classic winter, spring settled down with warm températures but a cool weather in April slackened down the evolution of the vines. May was rainy and was followed by a warm summer with heat waves. However, a few thunderstorms épisodes brought enough rain to allow the maturation of the grapes to continue. The harvest started early september with an excellent sanitary level of the grapes. Vinification : whole bunch fermentation for approximately two weeks, the wines are then aged in our XVth century cellar for a period between 14 and 18 months. Moderate use of new oak.
Tasting: Bright ruby colour. Aromas of ripe black berries with a hint of vanilla. Complex with a very pure fruit. Tight and dense and velvety texture.Well integrated tannins.Long and fruity finish.
Food pairing: It is perfectly matched with red meat grilled or en sauce, and all cheeses.
