Discover Domaine Chantal Lescure

The Domaine Chantal Lescure, located in Nuits-Saint-Georges, is a prestigious family-owned estate founded in 1975 by Chantal Lescure and Xavier Machard de Gramont. Today, the domaine is managed by their sons Aymeric and Thibault Machard de Gramont, alongside François Chavériat, the cellar master since 1996, who has driven a major qualitative shift. The estate spans 19 hectares from Chambolle-Musigny to Volnay, with a strong focus on the finest terroirs of Nuits-Saint-Georges and Pommard.

Terroir and Characteristics

The terroir is composed of rich and varied soils typical of Burgundy's esteemed villages, with vines certified organic since 2009. This certification emphasizes soil vitality and respect for the vine, central to the domaine's philosophy. Vinification follows a low-intervention approach, favoring extended macerations and patient aging in barrels with moderate new oak usage, allowing the terroir and fruit purity to express themselves authentically.

Wine Profile

Wines from Domaine Chantal Lescure, especially iconic cuvées like Pommard Les Vignots and Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Vallerots, are characterized by noble tannic structure, depth, and uprightness. These full-bodied red wines combine earthy power with remarkable fruit purity, offering excellent aging potential and longevity.

Food Pairings

These wines pair perfectly with dishes such as Beef Bourguignon, Filet of beef with morels, aged cheeses like Époisses, and roasted poultry with wild mushrooms, highlighting their richness and finesse.

Your questions, our answers.

Which cuvée should I start with to discover Chantal Lescure?

The 2023 Bourgogne red Les Verduns is a good starting point within the regional Bourgogne appellation. It offers an introduction to the estate before exploring the village cuvées, Chambolle-Musigny Les Mombies and Gevrey-Chambertin Mes Favorites, also from 2023.

Do Les Mombies and Mes Favorites refer to two different appellations?

These names complement the cuvée names: Les Mombies is associated with Chambolle-Musigny, while Mes Favorites comes from Gevrey-Chambertin. The information provided does not mention any Premier Cru or Grand Cru classification.

Might Chantal Lescure reds appeal to someone who enjoys age-worthy wines?

The estate describes its reds as deep and focused, with noble tannic structure and ageing potential. However, no ageing period or drinking window is specified for the four 2023 cuvées, so they cannot be compared on this basis.

Why aren’t there any Nuits-Saint-Georges or Pommard wines in this selection?

This selection of four wines covers only some of the appellations in which the estate works. Although based in Nuits-Saint-Georges and particularly attached to the terroirs of that commune and Pommard, Chantal Lescure owns a 19-hectare vineyard stretching from Chambolle-Musigny to Volnay.

What stylistic thread connects Chantal Lescure’s reds?

The estate seeks to produce reds that combine power, elegance and pure fruit, while faithfully expressing their terroir. Its low-intervention approach is based in particular on long macerations and patient ageing in barrels; no individual tasting profile is provided to precisely distinguish the four cuvées.
