Greves means gravel, and the vineyard delivers on the name: a mid-slope Beaune premier cru whose stony soils give Pinot Noir a lift and polish that richer sites cannot fake. Chanson has been in Beaune since 1750, aging its wines inside a 15th-century bastion built into the town's ramparts, and since Bollinger took over in 1999 the domaine has quietly become one of the Cote de Beaune's most dependable addresses. The house style is infusion rather than extraction, with whole clusters and a gentle hand, which is why these wines come out perfumed and pure instead of chewy. The 2021 was a small, cool vintage and it shows in the best way, all red-fruited transparency and fine tannin, structured but never heavy. Give it a few years and it will pay you back.

"The perfumed and cool nose is composed by notes of essence of red raspberry, a plethora of floral elements and a touch of forest floor. There is slightly more volume and richness to the attractive textured if decidedly punchy flavors that conclude in an equally austere and balanced finale that is even more compact. This too is going to require at least some patience."

Decanter

"Done in a long-lived ‘vin de garde’ style, this wine is meant to develop over time; the fruit is not notably lush or forward, but it is complex, with ripe plum and blackberry aromas accented with earth, menthol, and wood smoke. The texture is firmly tannic but not astringent, and the overall balance is muscular and powerful but still elegant. The grapes come from a total holding of two hectares, divided between three different plots. Each farmed and vinified separately. The grapes are fermented entirely as whole clusters before ageing in cask."

Wine Spectator

"Well-marked by toasty, olive-tinged new oak, this red also evokes strawberry, cherry, sandalwood, mint and mineral flavors. Coiled tight today, yet very long and finds equilibrium in the end. Best from 2028 through 2045."

"Fresh and perfectly ripe on the nose, aromas of rhubarb, white strawberries and black plums harmonize elegantly with red rose petals and crushed white peppercorns. A definite verve pulsates through this wine. The palate is dry with black plums and white strawberries balanced by clove and cardamom. Mouth-watering acidity tames its youthful tannins, giving a nice linger of cherry, white tea and rose petals on the finish."
