Domaine Pierre Naigeon Mazys-Chambertin Grand Cru 2019

Mazys-Chambertin is one of nine Grands Crus in the Gevrey-Chambertin appellation of the Cote de Nuits. Located on a gentle slope, the vineyard faces east, and the Pinot Noir vines are trained according to the Guyot method. The old and low-yielding vines are 75 years old and have complex, deep root systems which produce concentrated juice. The soils are made of Premeaux limestone and are covered by a thin top of soil. The vineyard is cultivated sustainably, encouraging the vineyard's ecology and promoting the soil's biodiversity and health. The cool climate experiences hot summers and cold winters, with warm days and cool nights during ripening. These diurnal temperature differences encourage good accumulation of sugars and flavours, balanced by natural freshness. The grapes are hand-harvested into small crates of just six kilograms to preserve the quality of the fruit.
