The estate and the wine
The estate and the wine The Dampt brothers - Emmanuel and Éric - moved into the Chablis region over thirty years ago to forge their own distinctive wines in the 3 valleys of the Yonne, Serein and Armançon. Their wide range of terroirs delivers wines of precision and accuracy, with unwavering consistency. 

One of Burgundy's finest family estates, the estate has been our new partner since last year.
Wine A typical Pinot, with notes of warm cherry, cherry syrup, and strawberry jam, the 2021 red Chevalier d'Eon Pinot Noir Burgundy reveals a beautiful balance, a slightly acidic, ripe, delicate, and light structure. A wine to be crunched over the next 2 years to fully appreciate, with a sober aging process particularly suited to it.
Vinification Hand harvested. Alcoholic and malolactic fermentation: 40% in oak barrels and 60% in stainless steel tanks. Aged on fine lees for around 18 months.
