Thierry Desseauve, leading French Wine Critic and writer for the French consumer wine publication “Le Classement des Meilleurs Vins de France”, features Domaine Chanson as winery of the year.
Desseauve expresses that Chanson has become one of “the most reliable names in Burgundy.” On the spectacular 2015 vintage, which serves as a proper benchmark for the rebirth of the estate after being acquired by Champagne Bollinger, Desseauve says the wines are “of unparalleled density and finesse, are marvelous today and will continue to be so for the next 50 years.”
