As Chanson expanded its domain holdings, it maintained a philosophy of terroir expression, careful vineyard investment, and blending negotiateur skill with estate cultivation. In Burgundy, Chanson Père et Fils handles estate bottlings including their Premier and Grand Cru sites, striving for consistency, purity, and elegance across vintages while respecting the local terroir and climate dynamics.\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\"\u003eThe wine is produced by Chanson Père et Fils under the Chanson Burgundy team. The team oversees vineyard management, picking decisions, vinification, blending, and barrel aging. They aim for finesse over power—gentle extraction, moderate oak, and fruit-forward balance. They also apply attention to sorting and fermentation temperature control to preserve delicate aromatics while ensuring structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVineyards and Micro Climate\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe Beauregard climat is a 1.1 ha parcel (for the Beauregard plot) owned by Chanson on a southeast exposure in Santenay. The soils are limestone with stony components, giving minerality and drainage. The site is situated mid-slope, receiving good sunlight yet benefitting from diurnal cooling in Burgundy’s continental climate. The microclimate supports slow, even ripening, preserving acidity and aromatic clarity in Pinot Noir.\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\"\u003eAfter harvest, grapes are destemmed (or partially whole-cluster), sorted, and fermented in small vats with temperature control. Maceration is moderate to avoid harsh tannins. Malolactic fermentation is carried out in barrels or vat. The wine is aged for about 14–19 months in French oak barrels, a proportion of which are new, balanced with used barrels to integrate structure and oak influence without overpowering fruit.\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\"\u003eBright ruby core.
