Over centuries it expanded its vineyard holdings across Côte de Beaune and Côte Chalonnaise. The domain arm, Chanson Père \u0026amp; Fils, now bottles wines from its own plots and selected climats, focusing on terroir fidelity, vineyard renewal, and modern cellar craftsmanship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer and Wine Maker\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThis wine is produced by Chanson Père \u0026amp; Fils.

The vineyard lies in a hollow at the foot of the Corton hill, with geology similar to that slope. The soil is a mix of clay, silt, and sand with good drainage, and exposure is east-facing which moderates ripeness. The climate is Burgundy continental: warm growing season, cool nights, vintage variation, and risk of heat stress.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eFermentation is likely done in small vats with temperature control, modest cap work to balance extraction, and possibly whole clusters inclusion. After fermentation, malolactic conversion occurs, then aging in French oak barrels (some new, some used) for about 13 months (for whites — but for reds likely longer). The oak regime is reserved to preserve freshness and purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eOn the nose: aromas of maraschino cherry, candied strawberry, orange oil, delicate floral notes of rose and violet, and a whisper of spice.
