Origin

Gevrey-Chambertin is a large town located at the northern end of the Côte de Nuits. It boasts one of the largest surface areas under vine with no fewer than 330 hectares under production. The vines are planted at altitudes of between 240 and 280 metres. The soil is limestone-based with a high proportion of clay marlstones from the scree of the Combe de Lavaux, giving power and roundness to the wines.
Our Gevrey-Chambertin comes from the bleding of two parcels: "Billard on Brochon" but also a climate called "Aux Echezeaux", on the border with the appellation Morey-Saint-Denis located under the Mazoyères-Chambertin.
