Boris Champy has already had a tremendous wine career, having worked for many years at Dominus in California, and most recently at Domaine des Lambrays. In 2019 he bought biodynamic pioneer Didier Montchovet’s domaine in Nantoux, a sweet village in the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, just behind Pommard.
The vineyards have a high elevation, and their cool microclimates are a gift in warm vintages. What’s more, they are mostly planted in high density 10,000 vines/hectare systems, unusual for the Hautes-Côtes where large trellises are the norm.
