Sumptuous and expressive, the 2019 Beaune 1er Cru Les Champs-Pimont delivers generous aromas of raspberries, woodsmoke, spices and plums. Medium to full-bodied, elegant, and charming, its refined tannins are entirely cloaked in succulent fruit. One of the last wines in the cellar to finish its malolactic fermentation, this cuvée was much easier to read in November than September.

Domaine Gilbert et Christine Felettig is a well-regarded wine producer located in the Burgundy region of France, specifically in the village of Chambolle-Musigny in the Côte de Nuits. The domaine is a family-run operation, managed by Gilbert Felettig and his sister Christine, who took over the winemaking responsibilities from their father, Henri Felettig. The Felettig siblings have continued to enhance the reputation of their family estate through meticulous vineyard management and winemaking practices.

The domaine owns about 12.5 hectares of vineyards spread across several prestigious appellations, including parcels in Chambolle-Musigny, Vosne-Romanée, and Echezeaux. This diverse portfolio allows them to produce a range of wines that showcase the distinct characteristics of each terroir. The vineyards are farmed with sustainable practices, focusing on maintaining the health and balance of the vineyard ecosystem.

Domaine Gilbert et Christine Felettig is particularly noted for its Pinot Noir wines, which are highly expressive and elegantly structured. These wines typically feature a fine balance of fruit concentration and nuanced earthy notes, with a delicate use of oak that complements rather than dominates the wine. The domaine’s Chambolle-Musigny wines, for example, are known for their finesse and aromatic complexity, offering floral and red berry aromatics with silky tannins.

In addition to red wines, the domaine also produces a smaller quantity of white wines from Chardonnay, which are appreciated for their purity and vibrancy. The overall approach at Domaine Gilbert et Christine Felettig is characterized by a commitment to expressing the unique qualities of their vineyard sites, with a focus on clarity, terroir representation, and the traditional elegance of Burgundy wines. The care and attention to detail by Gilbert and Christine in both the vineyard and the cellar have earned their wines a respected place among Burgundy aficionados.

The French Wine region of Burgundy (aka “Bourgogne”) may be small in size, but its influence is huge in the world of vino. The complexity of Burgundy can cast fear into the heart of even a seasoned wine pro, but fear not – the region need only be as complicated as you want it to be. Yes, it is home to some of the most expensive wines in the known universe, but there are also tasty and affordable wines.

Main grapes:

Pinot Noir originated in Burgundy and these vines cover 34% of the region, accounting for 29% of overall wine production. The red grape does extremely well in limestone and clay soil, which helps create their complexity. Pinot Noir wines from Burgundy range in colour from cherry to brick, are light in body, and typically have red fruit and spicy flavours. Gamay is a red grape also grown in Burgundy, but only makes up 10% of the vines.

Chardonnay is the primary grape for white wines in Burgundy, making up 48% of the vines and 68% of production. Chardonnay appreciates Burgundy’s marl soil, which gives it delicate floral, fruit, and mineral aromas and full-bodied flavours. Aligoté is the second white grape, accounting for 6% grown. {Read more about the ancient Aligoté grape in Burgundy.}

The region does produce a sparkling wine called Crémant de Bourgogne. It can be made from Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Gris, Aligoté, Gamay, Sacy, and Melon. Varieties include blanc, blanc de blancs, blanc de noirs, and rosé.
