Overview

The 2023 Ladoix Les Gréchons and Les Foutrières by Maison Capitain-Gagnerot embodies the distinctive terroir of southern Côte de Beaune. Sourced from two premier lieux-dits—Les Gréchons and Les Foutrières—this wine merges vivid red fruit flavors with an underlying saline minerality.

Terroir & Vineyards

Les Gréchons sits on shallow clay-limestone soils enriched with fossilized oyster shells, lending a steely minerality and fresh acidity. Nearby, Les Foutrières benefits from slightly deeper topsoil over limestone bedrock, contributing plush red berry notes and a velvety mouthfeel.

Winemaking

  • Hand-harvested grapes sorted in the vineyard and cellar
  • 100% destemmed, 18-day cold maceration to preserve aromatic purity
  • Native-yeast fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel
  • 12 months aging in French oak barrels (25% new) for balanced oak integration

Tasting Profile

  • Nose: Bright wild cherries, raspberries, hints of rose petal and sweet spice
  • Palate: Medium-bodied, lively acidity, fine tannins, and a mineral-driven finish
  • Pairings: Roast duck breast, creamy mushroom risotto, soft cow’s-milk cheeses, or charcuterie
