Château de Chamirey –
Premier Cru from the Côte Chalonnaise
Château de Chamirey lies in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise , that often underrated part of Burgundy between Beaune and Mâcon, known for its quiet, characterful wines. The estate dates back to the 18th century; since 1934, the Devillard family has managed it – now in its fifth generation. Over the decades, they have consistently invested in vineyards and cellars without losing the style that defines the Côte Chalonnaise: precision without heaviness, fruit with depth.
The 37 hectares of vineyards are divided between Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, 15 of which are classified as Premier Cru. The sites offer clay-rich, calcareous soils that benefit both varieties: they lend the Chardonnay a fresh minerality, and the Pinot Noir a fine structure with cherry fruit and a spicy finish. In the cellar, the team works with care and restraint – the terroir should speak for itself, not the winemaking.
Sustainability is not a marketing buzzword for Chamirey, but a lived practice: the natural rhythms of the vineyards dictate the work schedule. Those who appreciate Burgundian wines that prioritize elegance over extraction will find reliable sources here – from approachable Mercurey to age-worthy Premier Crus.
