Maison Chanzy Bourgogne Pinot Noir Les Fortunés

Bourgogne Pinot Noir Les Fortunés Bottle

Wine Description

Maison Chanzy was founded by Daniel Chanzy in 1974 in Bouzeron, located in the northern part of the Côte Chalonnaise region of Burgundy. In 2013, a group of Burgundy wine lovers purchased Chanzy with a group of investors and have since added a second holding in Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune for a total of 163 acres planted.

With full control of production from vineyard to bottling, Chanzy’s impressive range spans 40 appellations in 8 villages of Côte Chalonnaise and Côte d’Or. The vineyards are farmed sustainably.

Bourgogne Pinot Noir is from vineyards in the Côte Chalonnaise. Grown in typical clay and limestone soils with an average vine age of 35 years, Bourgogne Pinot Noir receives a seven-day pre-fermentation cold maceration and is then aged in used 450-liter barrels for ten months before bottling.

Acclaim
“This negociant based in Bouzeron in the Côte Chalonnaise has produced a fresh, succulent wine. Ripe tannins give this wine a light structure to sustain its fruitiness.”
— Wine Enthusiast, Jun 2021
“Starts off earthy in aroma, giving way to cherry, raspberry, earth and a hint of spice on the palate. Overall it’s balanced, firm and moderately long, just needs air.”
— Wine Spectator, May 2021
