Domaine Gachot-Monot is a fifth-generation, family-run estate based in Corgoloin at the southern end of the Côte de Nuits. Deeply rooted in tradition, the domaine is known for crafting honest, terroir-expressive wines from sustainably farmed vineyards. With a focus on Pinot Noir, their range highlights the nuance and structure of Burgundy’s lesser-known but deeply rewarding appellations.

‘Les Chaillots’ is a single-vineyard cuvée sourced from a particularly stony plot whose name derives from the old Burgundian word for pebbles. This well-draining, rocky soil lends natural tension and complexity to the wine, which expresses in vivid aromas of cherry, blackberry, and subtle forest floor. The structure is balanced and energetic, showcasing the character of this unique terroir within Côte de Nuits-Villages.

This wine pairs beautifully with red meats, game, or rich meat-based dishes with sauce. It is ideal for enjoying now through the next 5 to 7 years.
