Description

Chanson signs a fruity and balanced Beaune Premier Cru

The property

Founded in 1750, Chanson is one of the most famous houses in Burgundy. The estate is located in a bastion erected in the early 16th century as a watchtower with 8-meter thick walls, nicknamed "La Tour des Filles" and today dedicated to the maturation of the house's wines. Well known to lovers of great Burgundy wines, the Domaine Chanson offers confidential vintages that brilliantly reveal the expression of the greatest wine-producing villages of the Côte de Beaune.

The vineyard

The Chanson estate covers 45 hectares of vineyards located in the most beautiful appellations of the Côte de Beaune, exclusively in Premiers and Grands Crus (Santenay, Chassagne-Montrachet, Puligny-Montrachet, Beaune, Savigny-Les-Beaune, Corton).

The wine

The "Clos du Roi" climate is located below the "Les Marconnets" parcel. Formerly owned by the Dukes of Burgundy, it was annexed by King Louis XI after the death of Charles the Bold. The Chanson estate owns 35% of the climat, i.e. 3 hectares, two thirds of which are dedicated to pinot noir. This lightly structured clay-sand-limestone terroir is unique because of its subsoil, whose draining pebbles contribute to the fruity aromatic signature as well as to the supple tannins of this Beaune Premier Cru.

The vintage

If 2019 starts with a mild winter, the spring is marked by temperature variations and a significant rainfall, leading to a lot of millerandage. The scorching summer was punctuated by thunderstorms that saved the vineyard.

Vinification and maturation

Fermentation in whole bunches. The wine is aged for 14 to 18 months in the 15th century Bastion with a moderate proportion of new barrels.

The blend

This 2019 Beaune Premier Cru Clos du Roi from Domaine Chanson is a 100% pinot noir.

Tasting

Dress

Brilliant, the dress is of a beautiful ruby color.

Nose

The nose mixes fragrances of small red and black fruits with notes of liquor and spices.

Palate

The mouth seduces by its structure, its generous texture, its fine tannins as well as its finish whose persistence is enhanced by subtle spicy notes.

Food and wine pairing

This Beaune Premier Cru Clos du Roi 2019 from Domaine Chanson is the ideal accompaniment to duck breast with morello cherries, guinea fowl, partridge as well as regional cheeses (Époisses, Cîteaux, Brillat-Savarin, Langres or even an old Comté).
