Domaine Des Lambrays
Clos des Lambrays, mentioned since 1365 in the documents of the abbey of Cîteaux was divided between 74 owners after the French revolution and only in 1866 reported to unity. After a little glorious interlude, starting in 1979, he began a new course with Thierry Brouin as oenologist and director of the Domaine. Since 1981, the history and quality of Clos des Lambrays are definitively sanctioned by the classification in Grand Cru. The Clos des Lambrays has always been a wine in which the great stylistic essentiality hides a huge aging potential. The maison covers 9 hectares with the ownership of the largest Grand Cru of the Cote de Nuits. The property belongs to the Freund Koblenz family, but the domaine is always managed by Thierry Brouin. The vineyard is conducted according to principles inspired by organic (reasoned struggle), with extensive use of the horse for many of the work; the vinifications are all made with the stalks and the grapes of the most gipovani vineyards are declassed as Morey Saints Denis 1 er cru.
