This wine is made from a parcel originating from a 0.13-hectare vineyard located mid-slope on the northern part of Gevrey-Chambertin, at an altitude of 288 meters. This vineyard is both owned and leased for long-term cultivation. Sharing the region's oceanic climate with a semi-continental climate, it faces southeast and east exposures. The soil is composed of limestone with marl and micaceous quartz marls. The 60-year-old vines are pruned using the Guyot method. Grapes are hand-harvested in small crates, undergo rigorous manual sorting, and experience 100% destemmed grapes fermentation with indigenous yeasts.

The wine is aged for 13 months in oak barrels, without the use of new barrels, followed by light fining and filtration. The annual production is around 600 bottles. Tasting notes describe it as a wine of finesse yet substantial depth, showcasing fruity complexity with floral undertones. Overall, it represents a complex and harmonious Gevrey-Chambertin village wine.

Domaine Les Astrelles

Gevrey-Chambertin

Domaine Les Astrelles, formerly Pierre Naigeon, situated in Gevrey-Chambertin, has undergone significant changes since 2019 under owners Isabelle and Jean-Marie Chapier.

They've assembled a dynamic team, with Isabelle overseeing administrative and accounting tasks. Joining in April 2020, winemaker Julien Millet, supported by Alex Debruere, leads cellar operations alongside Xavier Champsaur, contributing to cellar work and order preparations.

Sophie Genot manages commercial, administrative, and customs aspects since October 2020. In 2022, Gaylord Boyeaux joined as vineyard team leader.

The winery is undergoing further development, with a new facility set to be completed by August this year. Presently, Domaine Les Astrelles manages about 14 hectares of organically cultivated vineyards across Gevrey-Chambertin, Bourgogne, Marsannay, and Fixin.

They also maintain a conscientious négociant segment, emphasizing hand-harvesting and close relationships with winegrowers.
