Information

Chorey-les-Beaune “Champs Longs”

“Champs Longs” is one of the most celebrated lieu-dits for Pinot Noir in Chorey. Alluvial soil mixed with limestone gravel gives an excellent balance between water retention and water drainage.

Now in the third year since acquiring the vineyard, we feel the results of our careful vineyard practices are becoming apparent. The wine has gained multi-layered depth, complexity, and scale, with an added touch of elegance.

We farm organically, using phytotherapy approaches researched and recommended by Eric Petiot, a pioneering plant scientist based in Lausanne. As far as spraying goes, minimal copper is used against downy mildew and low-fat milk against powdery mildew, with zero sulfur use. (Why skim milk and not whole milk? It’s because the fat clogs the nozzles of the sprayer).

The plot is horse-plowed by Melaine, who trained with Chandon de Briailles. She is young, but already admired by her peers for her precise plowing techniques.. The soil is tilled from mid-April to mid-July only, with no tilling for the other 8 months of the year. In mid-July, after the last tilling, we manually sow a mix of 13 different perennial and annual plant species to de-compact the soil and build organic mass for better water retention, increased biodiversity and healthier soil composition. The seeds are all certified organic.

The wine has a fairly intense, slightly spicy nose with red fruit. The mouth is full and silky, the tannins are delicate, and the red-fruited notes make for an elegant wine.(by Chanterêves)
