History continued.... The Count inherited it from his grandmother, Countess Chandon de Briailles, herself related to the famous champagne house of Moet et Chandon. The Domain Today Situated four kilometres north of Beaune in Cote d'Or, the domain is in the northern area of the Cote de Beaune in the famous Burgundian vineyard. Its surface extends over 13.7 hectares (34 acres) shared equally amongst the three villages of Savigny-les-Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. In the family since 1834, the Domaine Chandon de Briailles was taken up in 1982 in the expert hands of Nadine de Nicolay. Through relentless hard work she managed to revive, to general agreement, the letters of nobility of the wines of the estate. A family business continued... Today, her children, Claude and Francois de Nicolay, manage the estate together. Coming from very different professional backgrounds, they share the same passion: vine and wine. Both have received a strong \"transmission\" of inheritance and savoir-faire on the lands of their mother. In charge of the Domain since 2001, their complementarity is a major asset. The Main Actors Claude de Nicolay Born in 1967, Claude underwent training in viticulture in Beaune and oenology in Dijon. A graduate in technical oenology, she did winemaking training in Oregon (1992) and in New Zealand (1994). She joined the Domain in 1991 and created her own oenological laboratory then to be able to manage the analytical tracking of their wines. Francois de Nicolay Born in 1970, Francois is a graduate of Higher Business School (ESC). After various commercial experiences in Spain, the United States and Hong Kong, he undertook a winemaking course in 1996 in a large winery in Oregon. A lover of French vineyards, Francois opened a distribution agency and a shop in Paris where he distributed the wines of the family domain as well as numerous wines from other French domains. In 2001, he left the capital city to pick up the torch at the family domain in conjunction with his sister and, in 2005, introduced bio-dynamics to the domain. The Duo At the domain, tasks are shared and all decisions - notably those concerning vinification - are taken together. Team management, looking after the vines and a part of commercialisation are the responsibility of Francois, analysis and tracking of wines in cellar are the responsibility of Claude who also looks after certain export customers.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"B Wines","offers":[{"title":"750mL \/ 12 \/ 2023","offer_id":45611733385412,"sku":"1164487","price":1402.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/3538\/5028\/files\/domaine-chandon-de-briailles-savigny-les-beaune-aux-fournaux-750ml-204.webp?v=1766125102","url":"https:\/\/www.grandwinecellar.com\/products\/domaine-chandon-de-briailles-savigny-les-beaune-aux-fournaux","provider":"Grand Wine Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
