Chassagne-Montrachet

Rouge

This large and beautiful slope is fit for the 2 burgundian grape varieties. Pinot noir and Chardonnay are flourishing in this village thanks to the terroir complexity.

Vineyard

Pinot Noir and Chardonnay have always grown on the territory of Chassagne. The deeper soil with more stones is fine with the Pinot noir, with the famous Cordon of Royat pruning. Our cuvee is a blend of our own vineyard (Dessous les Mues) with purchased grapes (Plante Saint Aubin, Voillenots, Goujonnes).
