The Jerome Chezeaux estate was founded in 1930 and has had several owners since then. Located in Prémeaux-Prissey, just south of Nuits Saint Georges, the estate owns approximately 12 hectares of vineyards, some of which were brought into the family from the estate of Jerome's wife, Pierrette. The vineyards are well-maintained and are spread across the villages of Prémeaux, Nuits Saint Georges, Vougeot, and Vosne Romanée.
This Pinot Noir is vinified using traditional methods. First, it's harvested by hand, after which only the finest grapes undergo a cold maceration in the winery. This maceration lasts approximately 3 to 4 days. The wine's structure is then assessed, and depending on the results, it's decided whether the skins require frequent immersion to achieve the desired structure and flavor. Malolactic fermentation then follows, taking place in small oak barrels. After approximately 18 to 24 months, the wine is bottled.
