Château De Melin

The Château De Melin is a prestigious wine producer located in the Côte de Beaune region of Burgundy, France. This historic château dates back to the 16th century and is situated on a hill overlooking the picturesque village of Pernand-Vergelesses. The estate covers 14 hectares of land, with a majority of it dedicated to the production of high-quality Burgundy wines.

The Château De Melin is known for its exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes, which are carefully cultivated and handpicked to create their signature wines. The vineyards are located on the slopes of the Côte de Beaune, with a perfect south-east exposure that allows for optimal sun exposure and drainage. This terroir, combined with the expertise and passion of the winemakers, results in wines that are full of character and expression of their unique terroir.

The wines produced at Château De Melin are classified as Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée (AOC) Pernand-Vergelesses. This appellation is known for its elegant and complex wines, with a balance of fruitiness and minerality. The château produces both red and white wines, with their Pernand-Vergelesses 1er Cru "Les Fichots" being their most renowned wine. This premier cru is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes and is aged in French oak barrels for 12-15 months, resulting in a wine that is full-bodied with notes of red berries, spices, and a long finish.

The Château De Melin is committed to sustainable viticulture practices, with a focus on preserving the natural environment and the health of their vines. They use organic fertilizers and limit the use of pesticides and herbicides, allowing the grapes to fully express their terroir and characteristics. This commitment to sustainability is reflected in the quality and purity of their wines.
