Chambertin Grand Cru David Duband (Domaine) 2013

The wine

With its due easterly exposure, this grand cru Chambertin parcel, rich in marl, limestone and silt, produces a wine with a garnet-red appearance, revealing a rich, varied bouquet (black berries, toasting, mocha). Its tactile sensation is particularly charming: its soft, full-bodied attack is structured by rounded, velvety tannins. Its aromatic persistence ends in highly indulgent candied notes. This is a cuvée which can be cellared for a number of years and then enjoyed with dishes of character.

About the Producer David Duband

The domaine was founded in 1991 by the businessman François Feuillet, the owner of the Trigano brand which is known for its caravans and trailers. He fell in love with the region and entrusted the development of the wines to David Duband, who had already harvested grapes for the cooperative of Beaune. The domaine is spread over 17 hectares, including Nuits-Saint-Georges, Vosne-Romanée, Clos-de-la-Roche and Charmes-Chambertin. All the ingredients are combined to perfect the classicism of Burgundy: the domaine is certified as organic and, in 2008, the choice was made to vinify non-destemmed grapes. Since 1991, the winemaker has evolved much in the style of his wines which have gained in precision and elegance. They are now one of the greatest wines of Côte d'Or and are on the menus of most French three star Michelin Guide restaurants.
