Chanson Clos des Marconnets Beaune Premier Cru is a refined expression of Burgundy's winemaking tradition, created by the venerable Domaine Chanson. Rooted in history since 1750, this estate, with its renovated home in Beaune Bastion and updated press house, has produced a wine of exceptional quality. Produced from rigorously selected vineyards within the Côtes de Beaune, including the renowned Premier Cru and Grand Cru parcels, this red wine radiates a beautiful garnet color. Aromas of blackcurrant and blackberry blend seamlessly with floral notes, creating a complex and seductive bouquet that fully captures the essence of Pinot Noir.
Maturation and Refinement in the Chanson Cellar
After careful hand-harvesting, the Chanson Clos des Marconnets grapes undergo a meticulous fermentation process of approximately two weeks, followed by aging for 14 to 18 months in century-old cellars in both new and old oak. This aging process allows for a subtle integration of oak notes that enrich the wine's natural fruit character without overpowering it. The result is a smooth, full-bodied wine that simultaneously offers refinement and elegant structure. The palate is richly fruity and supported by a spicy finish, making every sip a journey to the heart of Beaune.

Each bottle is a promise of quality and enjoyment, a true ode to the region's rich winemaking tradition, and a perfect gift for any occasion that calls for a special toast.
