Home > SELECTION > FREDERIC COSSARD / DOMAINE DE CHASSORNEY

Frédéric Cossard established Domaine de Chassorney in 1996 after 10 years of experience as a wine merchant, and today he is well recognized as a top natural Burgundy winemaker who produces one of the most beautiful wines. Frédéric Cossard manages his vineyards using 'homeopathic farming.' This is one of the most advanced agricultural practices, which is a mixture of homeopathy and biodynamics, and it has been developed by Frédéric Cossard himself. He does not use SO2 or any chemical products in the cellar, so vinification is also totally natural. As a result of a high level of integration of sense, intelligence, and technique, the wines are extremely pure, clean, and directly express the terroir. Wines are linked with the movements of the moon and planets. We can enjoy many different faces of wines on different occasions. We can feel that the wines are alive in the bottle and in the glass; it is 'Vin Vivant >>>En Primeurs Sort By: Price: Low to High Price: High to Low Most Popular Title Manufacturer Newest Oldest Availability 45 per page 90 per page 180 per page 270 per page 450 per page 1 A809 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF RAFLING 2020 750ml B031 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF RAFLING 2021 750ml B238 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF BAIN DE BULLES GUY WURTZ 2022 750ml : HK$380.00 Available : HK$330.00 Available : HK$240.00 Available A cuvée made from Riesling supplied by a friend in Alsace. Although the details are undisclosed, the grapes come from a Grand Cru vineyard in northern Alsace. Ripe, rich fruit character with a well-balanced interplay of acidity and minerality. Unlike the typical Riesling wines made by producers in Alsace, this one carries Frédéric Cossard’s signature style—fresh and vibrant. Under INAO regulations, wines made in Burgundy from Riesling cannot display the grape variety on the label. As a workaround, Frédéric Cossard came up with the name “Rafling.” The word “Rafling” means “raffle” or “lottery” in Danish—a witty wordplay combining it with “Riesling.” (The back label says the origin of the grapes is Jura, but that was a misprint.) A cuvée made from Riesling supplied by a friend in Alsace. Although the details are undisclosed, the grapes come from a Grand Cru vineyard in northern Alsace. It shows crisp citrus-driven acidity, clean fruit, and a delicate undercurrent of minerality. The taste is stylish and distinct from the typical Riesling wines made by producers in Alsace.

As a workaround, Frédéric Cossard came up with the name “Rafling.” The word “Rafling” means “raffle” or “lottery” in Danish—a witty wordplay combining it with “Riesling.” Made from Gewurztraminer supplied by a friend in Alsace. While details are not disclosed, the grapes come from a Grand Cru vineyard in northern Alsace. The fruit shows full ripeness and concentration, yet the clean acidity gives the wine a sense of freshness. Slightly cloudy, it also has a nectar-like density. Under INAO regulations, wines made in Burgundy from Gewurztraminer cannot display the grape variety on the label. As a playful workaround, the sound combines “Guy Wurtz” with “Gewurz,” evoking an Alsatian character. A801 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF FEEL GOOD SAVAGNIN 2020 750ml B231 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF FEEL GOOD SAVAGNIN 2022 750ml A798 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF FEEL GOOD SAVAGNIN SKIN CONTACT 2020 750ml : HK$330.00 Available : HK$330.00 Available : HK$380.00 Available Jean-François Ganevat, a friend of Frédéric's from Jura, helped him find a source of high-quality grapes. Frédéric Cossard treated those healthy grapes using his manner and produced vivid wines. "Feel Good" is made from Savagnin. The label cannot include "Savagnin" if the wine was vinified outside of Jura, even if it is classified as Vin de France. Therefore, Frédéric named the wine "Feel Good", using the initials F for Fred and G for Ganevat. The wine is made from grapes from vines over 50 years old, fermented with wild yeasts, and aged in used barrels or qvevris for nearly a year. This version is aged in barrels.

It undergoes carbonic maceration using special tank equipment for nine months. B230 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF CHARDONNAY 2022 750ml B233 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF CUVEE M MOURVEDRE 2022 750ml B234 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF SUPER PINK 100% CINSAULT ROSE (2022) 750ml : HK$280.00 Available : HK$220.00 Available : HK$220.00 Available Jean-François Ganevat, a friend of Frédéric's from Jura, helped him find a source of high-quality grapes. Frédéric Cossard treated those healthy grapes using his manner and produced vivid wines. Jura Chardonnay from 50-year-old vines with extremely low yields. It is fermented by wild yeasts, aged in used barrels for one year, and then in stainless tanks for several months. The wine features very rich fruit flavors with mineral notes. While Chardonnay is famous in Burgundy, and Savagnin is renowned in Jura, Chardonnay actually occupies half of Jura's vineyard area, making it the most important grape variety there. It is characterized by a flavor profile distinct from that of Burgundy. In the 2022 vintage, Super Pink and Version Sud appear in unexpected styles, but Cuvée M seems to have finished in a style closer to the previous image. The taste is perfectly expressed by this label. Like Carignan, the Mourvèdre grape variety is generally blended with other grape varieties to create balance, but Frédéric Cossard seems to be looking at something different. He used 100% of this unique grape variety to bring out the beauty of Mourvèdre that no one had noticed before. This is also different from the Super Pink of previous years. This must be the character of the 2022 vintage! The color is pale, but it's so dense that you can feel the viscosity. It has a pleasant bitterness like pink grapefruit, and also a flavor like peach. The sweetness of ripe fruit, which becomes especially noticeable in the latter half, blends together into a feeling of bliss, like a tropical cocktail. In the South of France, the Cinsault grape variety is often used for rosé wine, but this is the first time we've had a Cinsault like this. B235 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF CUVEE C CARIGNAN 2022 750ml B236 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF UGM QVEVRIS 2022 750ml B224 FREDERIC COSSARD FLEURIE 2022 750ml : HK$220.00 Available Stockout : HK$280.00 Available Frédéric Cossard has a new wine called Cuvée C, made from 100% Carignan. Southern French wines are often made by blending grapes with distinct personalities, such as Carignan, Mourvèdre, Grenache, and Syrah. However, leave it to Frédéric Cossard, originally from Burgundy, to create an incredibly delicious wine with 100% Carignan! It's juicy, smooth, and you can even sense a delicate touch. It's such a vibrant wine. In 2022, which saw record-breaking drought and heat waves, the grapes suffered from extreme water shortage until just before the harvest. However, rain fell right before the harvest, revitalizing the grapes and leading to a very successful harvest. Also new in 2022 is UGM Qvevris, a blend of Ugni Blanc, Grenache Blanc, and Muscat. The blend of these grape varieties is familiar in the Rhône, but Frédéric Cossard's unique sense of style shines through here as well. It has a significant volume, but the beautiful acidity gives the wine a three-dimensional quality and lifts it. A vibrant wine full of colorful fruit. The label expresses the image of a gentleman from the north, wearing a scarf, experiencing the southern sunshine. Frédéric Cossard has a deep love for Beaujolais Gamay. In 2021, he collaborated with Damien Coquelet on a project called “Les en Hauts,” producing several cuvées in Beaujolais. In 2022, however, he released a Fleurie under SARL Frédéric Cossard. For the élevage, he used egg-shaped cement tanks to draw out pure fruit expression. The 80-year-old Gamay vines yield small quantities of dense, concentrated juice. Thanks to whole-cluster fermentation, the wine shows a pleasant astringency and mature yet rustic tannins, resulting in a style that goes beyond being simply easy-drinking—offering instead a refined, grown-up character. B038 LES EN HAUTS (COQUELET ET COSSARD) VdF ZAPOI 2021 750ml A820 FREDERIC COSSARD VdF PET NAT LA CHASSORNADE (2020) 750ml A787 FREDERIC COSSARD BOURGOGNE BLANC BIGOTES 2020 750ml : HK$220.00 Available : HK$240.00 Available : HK$380.00 Available Zapoi is made of 100% Gamay from the vineyards around Villié-Morgon. Well ripe yet fresh, fine astringency gives lively expression to the wine. Smily Gamay wine. instantly delicious now. Les en hauts is a collaboration between Frédéric Cossard and Damien Coquelet. Damian Coquelet biodynamically cultivates 9ha of Morgon, Chiroubels, Beaujolais-Villages and Beaujolais, and works in the cellar in completely non-interventional manner. Whole-bunch fermentation by natural yeast, no temperature control, no SO2 added during vinification, zero or minimal SO2 at the bottling. The wine of Les en hauts is made in Morgon by the egg tank, and bottled and cellared in Cossard's place for the moment. [Lot 2020] Like other wines, it is produced every year, and the taste varies each time; however, there is no vintage labeling, and the same design label is used each year, making it hard to distinguish between them. There seems to be an issue with inventory data management or possibly a mistake in the warehouse, as two lots from the 2020 and 2021 vintages exist. This wine was not particularly intended for aging, so the practice was to sell out one lot before moving on to the next. However, tasting both wines side by side was quite interesting. The Aligoté from Puligny-Montrachet shows a stark difference between the 2020 and 2021 vintages. Indeed, this is a reasonable observation given the vintage differences between 2020 and 2021 in Burgundy. [Mature Bottle Release] Bigotes is a great natural wine classic, made from Chardonnay from the Puligny-Montrachet area, near Volnay and Pommard. The age of the vines is 55 years. Frederic Cossard produces wine exclusively from old vines. The fruit and mineral characteristics are well-balanced at a high level. The 2020 vintage is well matured today; it's the perfect time to uncork. Immediately after opening, it emits bouquet and has quite a soft impression, but as time passes, it gains freshness and lively tension. People often describe Cossard's wines as Vin Vivant, and indeed, this Bigotes 2020 truly embodies that. B021 FREDERIC COSSARD BOURGOGNE BLANC BIGOTES 2021 750ml A504 FREDERIC COSSARD MERCUREY 2019 750ml B022 FREDERIC COSSARD PULIGNY MONTRACHET 2021 750ml : HK$320.00 Available : HK$420.00 Available : HK$980.00 Available Bigotes is a great natural wine classic, made from Chardonnay from the Puligny-Montrachet area, near Volnay and Pommard. The age of the vines is 55 years. Frédéric Cossard produces wine exclusively from old vines. The fruit and mineral characteristics are well-balanced at a high level. The 2021 vintage Bigotes is a dense and highly refined wine pressed from a very low yield of 25 hl/ha. Citrus fruits, primarily lemon, delicate minerality, and clean acidity bring the whole together in harmony. [Mature Bottle Release] Following 2018, this is the second production of Mercurey. This time, it is made using Qvevris. When we first tasted the Qvevris wine by Frédéric Cossard immediately after its release (debut was the 2018 vintage), we were bewildered by its extremely unique flavor. However, after observing the maturation process over the years, we have begun to understand Cossard's intentions and the direction in which the wine is heading. It goes without saying that 2019 possesses completely different vintage characteristics compared to the 2018 (which is also controversial), so we highly recommend experiencing both. This wine is made from grapes from the lieu-dit Voitte, located on the lower part of the slopes extending toward the 1er Cru Clavoillon in the center of the Puligny-Montrachet appellation. Depending on the vintage, the label may indicate the name Voitte, but in 2021, since a small amount of grapes from the 1er Cru La Garenne was blended in, the label simply states Puligny-Montrachet. The vinification and aging are carried out in egg-shaped concrete tanks introduced after the removal of wooden barrels, expressing pure fruit flavors and aromas. B228 FREDERIC COSSARD MOREY SAINT DENIS 1ER CRU MONTS LUISANTS 2022 750ml B027 FREDERIC COSSARD CHAMBOLLE MUSIGNY LES HERBUES 2021 750ml B227 FREDERIC COSSARD CHAMBOLLE MUSIGNY LES HERBUES 2022 750ml : HK$1,480.00 Available : HK$1,480.00 Available : HK$1,480.00 Available In Burgundy, there are several 1er Crus that rival or even surpass Grand Crus, and knowledgeable enthusiasts diligently collect such wines. This 1er Cru Les Monts Luisants is one of those wines. The lieu-dit “Monts Luisants” forms part of the Grand Cru Clos de la Roche and is adjacent to the Grand Cru Latricières-Chambertin. It is easy for anyone to imagine that this is an excellent location. The genius judge of vineyards, Frédéric Cossard has been purchasing grapes from this vineyard for many years, and those grapes are crafted into wine with a genius winemaking sensibility. This is one of the highlights of his series of red wines from Côte de Nuits, such as Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Chambolle-Musigny. Frédéric Cossard sometimes presents highly individual interpretations of grape varieties and terroirs in his VdF series that go beyond conventional understanding. In appellations such as Vosne-Romanée and Chambolle-Musigny, however, he produces classic wines that remain faithful to the character of the terroir and bring out its uniqueness to the fullest. (Even here, he uses egg-shaped cement tanks for élevage, of course to avoid masking the flavour of Pinot Noir with oak. This point differs from the traditional methods of Burgundy wine making.) The most successful among the elegant and airy series of 2021 is Vosne-Romanée as well as this Chambolle-Musigny, made from over 60 years of Vieilles Vignes planted on a small parcel of 0.2 ha in Lieu-dit Les Herbues. It has a sensual aroma with no heaviness; it is delicate and extremely smooth. Frédéric Cossard’s red wines are generally easy to enjoy from a young stage, and this Chambolle-Musigny is no exception. One thing to keep in mind, however, is that this Chambolle-Musigny is capricious: its taste can vary greatly from one day to the next. If you take care to bring the wine into good condition, choose an appropriate glass, and the roulette wheel stops on your number, it will offer an exceptional wine experience.

This Chambolle-Musigny 2022, in contrast to the extremely delicate 2021, shows richer, rounder fruit and a brighter overall impression on the palate. Both vintages express the typical character of Chambolle-Musigny, each through the lens of its own vintage personality. Frédéric Cossard’s red wines are generally easy to enjoy from a young stage, and this Chambolle-Musigny is no exception. Both the 2021 and 2022 vintages are already approachable now.

A130 FREDERIC COSSARD NUITS SAINT GEORGES LES DAMODES 2018 750ml B226 FREDERIC COSSARD NUITS SAINT GEORGES LES DAMODES 2022 750ml 4581 CHASSORNEY(FREDERIC COSSARD) SAINT ROMAIN ROUGE SOUS LA VELLE 2017 1500ml : HK$1,280.00 Available : HK$980.00 Available : HK$1,200.00 Available [Mature Bottle Release] Les Damodes is located on the border with Vosne-Romanée. Over 55 years Vieilles Vignes from 0.3ha small parcel in Les Damodes. Four weeks maceration in wood tank, and four weeks for fermentation by wild yeast. 2018 has a different character compared to 2017, showcasing a striking contrast. It features a warm, rounded, and thick texture with a rich extract. Perhaps due to its location, there are also elements reminiscent of VR, but the unique earthiness distinctly marks it as NSG. Les Damodes consists of areas classified as Village and Premier Cru, but this is classified as Village. However, once tasted, it becomes clear that the quality consistently surpasses that of most other producers' Premier Cru wines. The Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Damodes, born from old vines averaging over 60 years of age, planted on 0.3 hectares, has long been crafted by Frédéric Cossard. The lieu-dit Les Damodes is adjacent to Aux Boudots and lies on the border with Vosne-Romanée, very close to the golden zone that stretches from Aux Malconsorts to La Tâche. The lieu-dit is composed of both 1er Cru and Village classifications. The vinification and aging carried out in egg-shaped concrete tanks have brought out the pure fruit flavors and the delicate expression of the terroir with even greater clarity.　Like Vosne-Romanée and Morey-Saint-Denis, it is a popular label forming part of Frédéric Cossard’s Côte de Nuits red wine series. [Mature Bottle Release] This is another Saint Romain from Frédéric et Laure Cossard. Needless to say, Saint-Romain is their home ground. Sous la Velle is located 380m above sea level, just next to Sous Roche. The wine has good minerality and pure fruit. Frédéric et Laure Cossard have specially bottled this cuvée only in magnum. In fact, we purchased this cuvée six years ago, but we have never sold it while it has been cellared in Burgundy, making this its first release.       1 [Domaine de Chassorney] Frédéric Cossard has owned and managed the vineyards of Saint-Romain, Volnay, Savigny-lès-Beaune, and Hautes-Côtes de Beaune for 30 years, elevating them to be among the top vineyards in those appellations. In 2018, Frédéric Cossard appointed his long-time friend Aurélien Verdet as the successor at Domaine de Chassorney. Together, they produced wine over a three-year transition period. The 2022 vintage is the first produced under the leadership of Aurélien Verdet, who has fully inherited Frédéric Cossard's methods and philosophy. The wax cap color has changed to orange. Meanwhile, the "FREDERIC COSSARD" labels for Vosne-Romanée, Chambolle-Musigny, and others will continue to be handled by Frédéric and Laure Cossard as usual. [Frédéric Cossard] Frédéric Cossard produces wines by purchasing grapes. He has established strong connections with growers through his previous job and has a discerning eye for selecting quality grapes. He produces Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges, Morey-Saint-Denis, Chambolle-Musigny, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, and Beaune—all Burgundy appellations. Additionally, Cossard produces wine from grapes sourced from other regions such as Jura, Languedoc, and Beaujolais. The quality of his négoce wines is the same as that of his domaine wines.
