GEVREY CHAMBERTIN 1ER CRU LA ROMANEE DOMAINE DU COUVENT 2020 75CL
CONVENT RESERVE
Philippe CHRON.
The Domaine du Couvent presents itself as a family property led by Philippe Chéron and installed in the former convent of Gevrey-Chambertin. This 10 hectare vineyard extends over exceptional terroirs exclusively on the Côte de Nuits. Its vineyard forms a mosaic of plots mainly spread over the communes of Gevrey-Chambertin, Chambolle-Musigny and Vougeot; but also in Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges and Marsannay la Côte.
Vineyard dating from the 12th century, property at the time of the monks of Cluny, this closed of more than 1 hectare, is a monopoly of the Domaine du Couvent. It benefits from a southern exposure at the exit of the Chaudron valley and culminates at an altitude of 350 meters on the edge of the woods. The vine originally planted with 50% Chardonnay and 50% Pinot Noir was replanted in the 60s. "La Romanée" is located on a white marl soil, with a profusion of very dominant pebbles which store heat during the day and the return at night. The thin scree soil leading to the limestone subsoil leads to a very high contribution of the various trace elements present in the rocks, giving this rare wine elegance, exquisite finesse and a minerality incomparable to the other terroirs of Gevrey Chambertin.

The Cellier aux Moines is made up of a set of historic buildings dating from 1130, a vast Cistercian cellar, a house and its outbuildings, which dominate Givry and have stood the test of time. It was the vineyard of the Monks of the Abbey of La Ferté for seven centuries, until the French Revolution. Then it was the property of the same family for two centuries, before being acquired and restored in 2004 by Philippe and Catherine PASCAL and their three children, Camille, Marguerite and Alexis.
The Domaine du Cellier aux Moines is one of the oldest wine estates in Burgundy. Established around 1130 in Givry by Cistercian monks, it is made up of a Cellar, always surrounded by its Clos de vignes for nine centuries.
The Clos du Cellier aux Moines is a Premier Cru Classé of Givry, today covering 13 hectares, as in the time of the Monks. The Domaine du Cellier aux Moines has 5 hectares, perfectly exposed in the middle and top of the hill, surrounding the historic Cellar. Enclosed above the Clos du Cellier, is another tiny 27-acre enclosure surrounded by very thick walls, forgotten since the phylloxera crisis. It was replanted in 2010 and named Clos Pascal.
In 2015, Guillaume Marko joined the field as technical manager, vines and wines. Holder of a DNO (national oenology diploma) from the University of Dijon, Guillaume did his apprenticeship in major areas of the Côte de Nuits.
