The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine At the pinnacle of the Côte de Beaune, Chandon de Briailles is a historic estate awarded three stars by the French wine guide RVF. Known for its precision and purity, it remains steadfast in its commitment to authenticity and terroir-driven expression.

A firm believer in whole-cluster fermentation, the estate embraces a style that gives the wines structure and depth, evolving beautifully with time. It has also fully transitioned its 14 hectares to biodynamic farming, reintroducing horse-drawn plowing to preserve soil health and enhance vineyard vitality.

With a confident, time-honored approach, Chandon de Briailles crafts some of Burgundy’s most refined and age-worthy wines, built to develop gracefully over the years.
Wine The 2022 Red Corton Grand Cru Clos du Roi is nothing short of breathtaking in this vintage, delivering a stunning expression of its exceptional terroir. Elegantly floral and supremely refined, it offers a silky, delicate mouthfeel, where every element is in perfect harmony. The seamlessly integrated tannins melt into an extraordinary fruit core, both pure and beautifully ripe. A truly majestic Grand Cru, and undoubtedly one of the finest wines of the vintage. Rated 100/100 by the French wine guide RVF.
