Micro-negociants Tomoko Kuriyama and Guillaume Bott, both trained enologists, sourced this Pinot Noir from the far northwest corner of Nuits appellation, where vines planted in the 1990s reach toward hard limestone bedrock. One hundred percent whole-cluster fermentation with ambient yeasts and daily bucket pump-overs built the wine's structure. Twelve months in used oak and another year in stainless steel preserved transparency. No fining or filtration means you're tasting terroir unvarnished: a wine with the precision to age gracefully yet the charm to drink now.

If there is a winemaking category for clean, transparent and terroir driven Burgundy made by a wife and husband, micro-negociant team than Tomoko Kuriyama and Guillaume Bott of Maison Chantereves would be the super stars. Actually they are basically superstars anyway!

Here is how our colleague, John Truax, explains things (he has visited Chantereves more than anyone):

"The immaculate and precise winemaking at Chanterêves is inspired by old wisdom and new techniques. Both Guillaume Bott and Tomoko are trained enologists. For whites they press the whole cluster grapes with light or no SO2 addition to the must. Only indigenous yeasts, natural malolactic fermentation. No fining, sometimes one light filtration of about 50% of the final blend. Red wines are all 100% whole cluster fermented. No mechanical pump-overs. Punch downs are done with their feet. The wines are bottled in January or February after two winters in their cold cellar. Fermentation is in old oak and the wines are aged in used oak barrels. Rarely are any new barrels used."
