Chandon de Briailles



More about Chandon de Briailles

This important estate is owned by Aymar and Nadine de Nicolay (pronounced Nicolaï) and their four children. Their son François and youngest daughter Claude are in charge, along with cellar master Jean-Claude Bouveret, who is called Kojak by everyone, even himself, for obvious reasons.

The progress made here over the last decade is impressive and the estate is now a major source of Ile de Vergelesses (of which they are the largest landowner) and a range of excellent Cortons. The domaine has been farmed entirely biodynamically since 2005.

The fruit is only partially destemmed, fermentation temperatures are low and the proportion of new oak is very low. The result is wines of only medium structure, but they are pure and aromatic and keep well.

14 ha in property and en métayage (lease in kind): Corton, Les Bressandes (1.74 ha); Corton, Clos du Roi (0.44 ha); Corton, Les Maréchaudes (0.39 ha); Corton- Charlemagne (0.39 ha); Corton blanc (0.25 ha); Volnay premier cru Les Caillerets; Aloxe-Corton premier cru Les Valozières; Pernand-Vergelesses premier cru
