Product Notes

Domaine Pierre Damoy Chambertin Clos de Beze Grand Cru is a classic and refined wine from Burgundy in France. This wine is made from Pinot Noir grapes, which are carefully selected and blended to create a mature and complex flavor that is characteristic of the region. It is aged in oak barrels to enhance its smoky, woody notes and give it a rich, full-bodied texture. This wine has a deep garnet color, with a bouquet of plums, cherries, and blackcurrants. On the palate, it is full and well-structured, with fine tannins and a long, smooth finish. This wine is perfect for pairing with red meat dishes, game, and strong cheeses. It is a true masterpiece of French winemaking.

Tasting Notes

Rich dark fruit aroma with a touch of vanilla. Deep and firm and dry, the tannins really smooth but more like paper than silk. Chalky finish. Young and hidden. Cool, long finish

About the Winery

Domaine Pierre Damoy

Located in one of the world’s premium wine-producing regions of Burgundy in France, Domaine Pierre Damoy had its share of glory in the 1950s and 1960s. During this time, this estate was one of the most prestigious and popular of all estates in Gevrey Chambertin, a village in Burgundy’s Cote d’Or. During those days, this village had quite a few underachievers in terms of wine production. Domaine Pierre Damoy was one of them. Like other estates in this village, this Domaine also produced red wines with a firmer body and more tannin than other red wines produced in Burgundy.

However, as the quality of the wines produced by Domaine Pierre Damoy improved, the estate was no more an underachiever. After the 1960s, this place noticed a slight dip in wine production; however, things picked up steam in the 1990s when Pierre Damoy took over the control of the estate. 

Pierre manages his winemaking business by selling what he has more of and buying what is short of.  Since he produces quite a lot of grapes in the regions of Chambertin Clos de Beze and Chapelle- Chambertin, he sells them to the wine producers, who need them. On the other hand, he buys some grapes that he needs from the lower appellations. (like Bourgogne Rouge, Marsannay Longeroies and Gevrey-Chambertin La Justice).

Pierre and his team practice durable viticulture on the farms to provide ultimate respect to the soils. The climate and soils of this region naturally help in the late harvest of the fruits. This is the reason for the high aromatic content of the wines created here. For ageing purposes, the percentage of new wood for the barrels depends on the type of wine. While 30% new wood is used for Bourgogne, 50% and 80% are used for Gevrey Chambertin and the crus, respectively.
