Situated in the heart of the Côte de Beaune and spread over three villages (Savigny-Lès-Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses et Aloxe-Corton), this domain was bought in 1834 by Countess Chandon de Briailles. It has been belonged to the same family ever since. A pioneer of bioydynamics in the region, the domain is also known for its élevages using very little new oak. These wines, perfectly suited to cellaring, are sought-after for their refinement and delicacy.More information : Read the article about domain Chandon de Briailles on the blog

Domaine Chandon de Briailles, situated in Pernand-Vergelesses, knows how to create excellence from the climats in the commune just like those of the neighbouring crus on the Corton mountain. The Pernand-Vergelesses wines are gorgeously graceful, fresh, balanced and composed. Managed by François de Nicolaÿ, the estate, driven by biodynamics, produces wines with the least possible input, from the vines to the cellar, where using sulphur is very limited. The estate produces wines on the razor’s edge of stability but amazingly purified. The estate’s wines are excellent and therefore deserve to be known. The Ile des Vergelesses climat is one of the most beautiful climats in the commune. Perfectly exposed, it produces ripe wines from these usually cold terroirs, allowing the wine to achieve a great balance, a superb finish as well as containing silky crunchy fruit. Flavourful, open, delicate and taut, this succulent and delicate Chardonnay creates the sensation of biting into fresh fruit. Being almost crystal clear, it will take some time to forget this wine.
