This climate, whose etymology recalls that of its illustrious neighbor, is located in the northern extension of the Ruchottes Chambertin and preceding the outlet of the Lavaux valley. Geologically, it is a complex area marked by the presence of numerous secondary faults, and where the orientation and slope of the hillside vary rapidly. The style is original and expressed with great subtlety.
Philippe Pacalet is a wine artisan. It defines itself as a revealer of terroirs.
The singularity of his work is the development of climatic wines which is based on the use of ancestral and modern techniques, a mixture of know-how and passion. It does not want to be very interventionist.
Coming from the wine world where he grew up, Philippe Pacalet already had a winemaker ancestor in 1780. He carried out scientific studies which led him to be a qualified oenologist and specialist in native yeasts.
Philippe Pacalet learned the trade through contact with great professionals and acquired solid practical experience during 10 years as manager of a wine estate in Côte de Nuits.
In 2001, with his knowledge and experience, he decided to settle in Beaune.
Today Maison Philippe Pacalet works on more than 10 hectares of vines in Burgundy for which it has harvest purchasing contracts, and does the harvest itself. Of course, the organic cultivation of the vines is carefully monitored and subject to strict specifications.
Annual production is around 50,000 bottles distributed in Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune and Chablisien.
