Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champs-Cheny Irène Noblet
Domaine des Hospices de Nuits-Saint-Georges
Albert Bichot’s view
The only exception to all the Nuits-Saint-Georges wines presented at the auction, this famous cuvée comes from the village of Gevrey-Chambertin and often mistakenly classified as a premier cru. Not a surpise knowing its origin, indeed located right below the most famous "Charmes" plot.
This Gevrey-Chambertin is very expressive, with a lot of freshness on the first nose, in addition to the classical Pinot Noir fruit-cocktail. A firm yet soft mouthfeel signs a joyful cuvée.
Food pairings
Roasted chicken, pan-fried vegetables, an attractive cheese platter!

Vinification and aging
This Gevrey-Chambertin Les Champs-Chenys - cuvée Irène Noblet has been skilfully vinified by the Domaine des Hospices de Beaune. Sold every year at the Hospices auction on the 3rd Sunday in November, Albert Bichot regularly buys this great wine on behalf of clients who then entrust us with its ageing in our cellars. During this important period, thanks to meticulous work and the blending of a variety of barrels, we further develop its complexity and potential.
