Grand CruCHARMES-CHAMBERTIN
Aux Mazoyères

Geographic description

This climate possesses the oldest vine in the commune planted in 1881. Gevrey-Chambertin's worldwide reputation is based on the excellence of its Grands Crus. "Mazoyère" means "small houses" in the french language. This Grand Cru is located in cold micro-climate which allows a clear distinction from its neighbour Les Charmes.

Geological description

Installed on limestone outcrops covered with a red-colored soil. The rocky basement is very resistant but well cracked, which allows the roots of the vine to dive into the deep. This is the explanation of their amazing longevity. Some plots are more than 100 years old.
