Our team visited Domaine Tortochot during the harvest in September and spent a bit of time with Chantal, who guided us through the Domaine and her vineyard in Lavaux St.-Jacques. Then, two months later, in November, we returned to taste the 2018 vintage.

Domaine Harmand-Geoffroy is one of the great specialist exponents of red Burgundy from Gevrey-Chambertin. It’s a visit we always look forward to as the family are warm, friendly, unpretentious, and very much dedicated to their vines and wines. Indeed, with their home and their winery located in Gevrey-Chambertin itself, with vines that they tend beginning just outside the house, the deep intuition for Gevrey that you can sense when you taste becomes easier to understand.
