Patriarche Gevrey-Chambertin
The history of Patriarche was written by audacious men and women starting in 1780 in Beaune. The traditional care of the winemaking methods make their wines a bench-marking classic of the regional style with a lot of freshness and great balance.
It is the most important vineyard of the Côte de Nuits extending on the communes of Gevrey Chambertin and Brochon.
The communal appellation vines lie on brown calcic or limey soils. They also reap the benefit of marls covered with screes and red silt washed down from the plateau. These stony mixtures confer elegance and delicacy on the wine while the clayey marls, which contain rich deposits of fossil shell-fish, add body and firmness. The grapes selected for this Cuvée come from very well located parcels on the slope and are bought from wine growers with whom we have maintained a lasting relationship.
