Tasting Notes
Brothers David and Nicolas Rossignol run this 100% Organic and Biodynamically farmed Domaine located in the very heart of Gevrey Chambertin. Very early to the Sustainable farming movement, all the family's vineyards, located in some of the most impressive vineyards in Burgundy, were converted to Certified Organic in 2004.
Petite-Chapelle is immediately below the Chapelle-Chambertin Grand Cru climats of La Chapelle and Les Gémeaux. The soil is deeper and richer in clay, which provides a step up in power and intensity. Ferrous, mineral notes on the nose, this has a darker and more brooding personality than Clos Prieur. The palate is toned, with firm but ripe tannins adding plenty of structure. This is a very complete Gevrey Premier Cru that is both mineral and silky. Drink 2026-2039

Scores
94 / 100"This wine is densely perfumed, with prominent blackberry and rose petal aromas. Texturally, it is rich and lush, yet it also shows great finesse and elegance. There are reserves of tannin and plenty of density, but everything is fully ripe, and there is no astringency or tartness. This half-hectare parcel in rather heavy clay soils downslope from Chapelle Chambertin is in a sunny spot – in 2021, it was not affected by the frost and has delivered a delicious wine."
