Winemaker Notes
This
wine is a selection from our estate and it pays tribute to the Maison Champy's founder: Edme Champy. The
wine is made up of a mixed selection of 80 barrels, 40 of which come from Domaine Champy's vines (in the
villages of Volnay and Ladoix) and from vines in the village of Santenay in the Côte de Beaune. The grapes
are manually harvested and aged in barrels (of which 25 are new) for a duration of 14
months.
The wine is dark ruby with purple highlights. On the nose it's very open, with notes
of small black fruit and vanilla on a finely woody background. Fresh on the palate, supple and round. A lively
and structured wine, with tannins that are present but coated.
