Philippe Pacalet created his négociant label in 1999 and produces a characterful and distinctive range of red and white wines from several villages in Burgundy, Beaujolais and the Northern Rhône. More towards the “natural” end of the spectrum, he farms biodynamically and insists on ferments with 100% whole bunches, only natural yeasts and no additional sulphur.

The Chambolle-Musigny Premier Cru is produced 70% from Sentiers, which lies just below Bonnes Mares, and 30% from Feusselottes. This combination provides natural opulence and complexity from the former, with texture and fruit concentration from the latter.

Minimal intervention, maximum elegance

Philippe Pacalet is a winemaker with an impeccable pedigree. The nephew of the renowned Beaujolais natural wine-maker Marcel Lapierre, by whom he was mentored as a young man, Pacalet went on to make wine at the illustrious Domaine Prieuré Roch in Prissy-Prémeaux during the 1990s. Next moving to Beaune to establish his own project. He now farms 10ha of vineyards spread across the Côte d’Or, including numerous Premier and Grand Cru sites. Although Pacalet’s rare winemaking savoir-faire is evident in all of his wines, his flagships of Corton-Charlemagne, Charmes-Chambertin and Ruchottes-Chambertin are of particular note.

Using only organically and biodynamically farmed fruit, Pacalet’s vinifications are done with whole bunches, no sulphur and long barrel ageing. His minimal-intervention methods are aimed at simply expressing the identity of the vineyard sites from which the wines are made. Increasingly sought-after by Burgundy aficionados, Pacalet's wines are characterised by a purity, elegance and vibrant fruit expression that is almost unmatched in the Côte d’Or.
