A Small Parcel, A Distinct Voice

Chai Garnerot is the négociant arm led by Caroline Fyot, who also oversees Château de Garnerot in Burgundy's Côte Chalonnaise. Even with purchased fruit, she stays closely involved from vineyard to cellar, letting each parcel's character come through.

This cuvée is drawn from En Boeuf, a single 0.3-hectare parcel in the celebrated Côte de Beaune village of Pommard, where iron-rich clay-limestone soils typical of the appellation are thought to contribute to the wine's structure and depth.

Taste profile

Fresh fruit, fine tannin, a savory finish.

Elegant notes of fresh oak, with a youthful yet refined barrel-derived structure

Layers of fresh fruit with a subtle herbal lift and delicate floral notes, over fine, supple tannins; Pommard's structured backbone remains, closing on a saline, savory note and a light, easy-drinking finish

Deep, classic carmine red

Before it reaches the glass

01

Temperature

Serve at 15–18°C to bring out Pommard's depth

02

Timing

In its first years after release, decanting or a large glass helps the aromas open; because the wine is made without added sulphites, a light natural sediment may form in the bottle, so pour gently

03

Glassware

A large Burgundy balloon glass to concentrate the aromas

At the table

Pommard's structure, fine tannins and savory finish guided these choices across Japanese, Thai and Western tables.

Lean, umami-driven cuts, gently spiced braises and classic Burgundian dishes all let the wine's structure come through without competing against it.

Japanese

  • Wagyu akami (lean cut) steak
  • Sukiyaki
  • Seared duck breast

Why it worksLean, umami-forward preparations sit well against the fine tannins, while sukiyaki's sweet-savory sauce echoes the wine's fruit.

Thai

  • Mild massaman beef curry
  • Thai-style grilled beef (nuea yang)
  • Slow-braised beef dishes

Why it worksGentle spice and depth of flavor support the wine's savory finish; dishes with heavy chili heat or pronounced sweetness are best avoided.

Western

  • Roast duck with berry sauce
  • Boeuf bourguignon
  • Grilled lamb

Why it worksClassic Burgundian pairings, where the fruit in the sauce and the richness of the roasted or braised meat meet the wine's tannin and structure.

From cellar to bottle

Winemaking

Pinot Noir is hand-harvested and either partially or fully destemmed depending on the cuvée, then pressed slowly in a traditional vertical press; fermentation and malolactic conversion proceed without any addition of sulphites.
