The terroir of Nuits-Saint-Georges Les Vallerots is renowned for its very chalky soils, ideal for growing Pinot Noir.
Philippe Mischler, sommelier at Mundovin : The Chantal Lescure wine estate, run by François Chavériat , continues a winegrowing tradition that goes back several generations. The grapes are harvested by hand, and only perfectly ripe grapes are selected. Winemaking is orchestrated with the precision of a goldsmith, preserving the integrity of the grapes and their purest expression.
