Origins

The Bourgogne rouge appellation covers around 2,000 hectares spread over the entire Burgundy wine-growing region, covering 384 communes. From the Chablis and Auxerrois regions in the north to the Mâconnais region in the south, via the Côte d'Or and Côte Chalonnaise, Burgundy wines come from a wide variety of terroirs.

For our red Burgundy, the Pinot Noir grapes come mainly from selected vineyards in the south of Burgundy, in the Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune and, to a lesser extent, in the Côte de Nuits.

It is at this stage, during the selection of terroirs and partner winemakers, that our winemaker plays a very important role, to enable the Pinot Noir to express itself perfectly while respecting the know-how and tradition of quality, elegance and prestige of the House.

Vinification and maturing

The grapes are destemmed and then placed in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats for fermentation (18 to 25 days). The pigments, tannins and aromas are gently extracted by regular punching down and pumping over. The free-run juice is blended with the press juice. The wine is then matured for 6 months, mainly in stainless steel vats, but some of it is aged in oak barrels (30% new oak) to round out the tannins and add complexity to the wine.

Vintage : 2025

The 2025 growing season in Burgundy was marked by a rainfall deficit of around 30% compared with 2024, combined with an early harvest. The first cuts of the secateurs took place on August 25 in the Beaune Premier Cru vineyards, notably in Savigny-lès-Beaune (Clos du Roi and Marconnets).

Across the entire vineyard, harvesting began up to two weeks earlier than in 2024 and extended over a longer-than-usual period to adapt to weather conditions, which turned rainy at the outset of the harvest. All grapes were brought in on time: sanitary conditions were very good, and the fruit shows an aromatic concentration that suggests elegant, refined wines. While volumes appear stable compared to 2024, they nevertheless remain below the five-year average.

At the time of the first run-offs in mid-September, red wines were showing gentle extraction with fine colour. White wines, meanwhile, quickly revealed themselves to be rich, flavoursome and concentrated, while retaining fine freshness thanks to cool nights that preserved acidity.

In summary, 2025 is shaping up to be a vintage of character and quality, for both red and white Burgundy wines.
