The Estate Chandon de Briailles
"Géré depuis 2001 par le duo sœur-frère Claude et François de Nicolay, celui-ci s'étend sur près de 14 hectares intégralement conduits en biodynamie depuis 2005. Les vinifications sont des plus traditionnelles : raisins entiers, températures de fermentation n'excédant pas 30°C, et pas ou très peu de bois neuf.
Un trio de conditions qui résume l'identité des vins, dont l'extraction colorante est aussi limitée que leur expression est intensément florale et raffinée. Le style des vins a beaucoup évolué en peu de temps. Les progrès en quelques années ont été considérables ici, tant en rouge qu'en blanc." 4*/5 Bettane+Desseauve
