Description

The name is derived from "graviers", small pebbles or gravel found on the soil of the vineyard.

The Romans had already recognized the potential of the hillside overlooking Beaune and planted vines there. Some of the vineyards were separated by small walls and paths which are still extant today.

Tasting

"A great wine, one of the most representative of Beaune, the capital of Burgundy.

Intense and bright red colour.

The nose displays aromas of red currant with some spicy notes. With age and in some vintages, the aromas become even more marked by spicy and smoky touches, such as tobacco. 

On the palate, the tannins are refined and create a seductive harmony.

In the aftertaste there is a marked flavour of "crème de cassis" (cream of black currant) and delicate touches of wood".
