Gevrey-Chambertin, Clos Tamisot, Pierre Damoy - 2019

Provenance: Burgundy
Appellation: Gevrey-Chambertin
Domain: Pierre Damoy
Grape variety(ies): Pinot noir
On-call time: 20 years
Alcohol degree: 14%

Beware, this is one of the secret jewels of Burgundy! With its ancient massal selection, it has a very beautiful, complex, spicy nose, which evolves on long pepper and violets. On the palate, the wine is both ample and energetic, stretched by a magnificent "ripe" acidity which gives it a lot of life and intensity. More than a wine of power, it is a balanced and long-lasting wine, tasty and which has all the arguments to go up in speed over the next twenty years at least.

Technique

Viticulture

A 1.4 hectare vineyard located to the north of the village, on the Brochon side. The parcel is adjacent to the estate (vat room and house). The estate is the only one to claim this cru. 2/3 of the vineyard was planted in 1922, the rest in 1945. The grapes are often millerandage, due to this canonical age and the selection process. Although attempts at isolation have been made, the blend is always superior.

Oenology

Aged for 18 months on fine lees in barrels, with up to 50% new oak.

Suggestions for accompaniment

Saddle of rabbit - Octopus with morels - Veal pie with asparagus and morels - Breast of duck with cherries.

Now run by the fifth generation, this 11-hectare family estate owns nearly half of the Chapelle-Chambertin and Clos-de-Bèze Grands Crus, but also a large one-hectare plot in Chambertin. Nothing less. The property was founded by Pierre's great-great-grandfather, Julien, and has never been divided. Pierre Damoy succeeded his uncle, Jacques, in 1992. The estate is also an important source of grapes for certain Beaune négociants who have fixed areas reserved for them on long-term contracts. He also buys grapes for certain appellations that are not classified as Grand Cru, such as Fixin Mogottes.A man of character, secretive and discreet, passionate about rare plants and agriculture in all its forms, Pierre Damoy has a background in agricultural research. And despite the use of numerous organic treatments on the estate, he is not satisfied with what he considers to be the "excessive dependence" of organic viticulture on copper compounds, which always end up in the soil, even though they are approved for "organic" treatments in the form of Bordeaux mixture. As a true man of the field, with good farming sense, he claims respect for his land and a sustainable, perennial culture. His soils are ploughed and no herbicides or pesticides are used in the vineyards. It must also be said that in addition to the terroirs, the very old vines are the other treasure of the estate, with the...
