About this Wine
Don’t let the “villages” fool you—Les Chaillots is firing on all cylinders. From a stony plot in Corgoloin (the name literally means “pebbles”), this 100% destemmed Pinot is light on its feet, with black fruit, violets, garrigue and a zap of electric acidity that makes everything sing. The texture is delicate, the structure is dialled-in, and the whole wine feels like a bolt of energy. Super tasty, and just the right amount serious.

Tasting Notes
Elegant, electric, and effortlessly drinkable. A stony, high-energy Pinot with charm to spare. Pebbles never tasted so good.
Stony Soils. Electric Vibes. 2,000 Bottles Made.
Les Chaillots means “pebbles” in the local dialect, and that stony backbone defines the wine—light, fresh, and full of snap. Grown in Corgoloin from 50-year-old vines, this is Pinot Noir that buzzes with acidity and tension, but still brings depth and elegance. Expect blackberry, cranberry, violet, garrigue and just a flicker of black pepper spice.
100% destemmed and very gently extracted, this is a wine built on finesse—not force. It drinks beautifully now, but there’s enough structure to see it age with grace.

Discover Their Story
Famille Messager-Germain is Burgundy’s next big thing: bold, bright, and born to shake things up.
Adèle and Simon trained in Beaune, cut their teeth with icons like Groffier and Drouhin, and came home to Fixin to revive old family vines.
Now they’re bottling tiny, thrilling cuvées that fuse deep roots with fearless ambition.

Verified Trustpilot ReviewFAQs
Clear details, so you can buy with confidence
Is this wine ready to drink now?
Yes. This is ready to drink now, but a little patience could make it even more rewarding. Open one soon, then tuck another away if you want to watch it develop.
Should I buy one bottle or a few?
One to try, three if you want to follow it over time, six if you already know the producer or style. Burgundy moves quickly, and small parcels rarely hang around for long.
What if I’m not sure this is my style?
Use our live chat, or pop us an email. We specialise in Burgundy and are always happy to help. Our tasting notes are based on wines tasted by our founders and updated regularly, so you can buy with proper confidence.
How quickly will it arrive?
Fast. We ship every wine on a next-working-day service and dispatch Monday to Friday. At checkout, you can even choose a delivery day that suits you.
How is it packed?
Each bottle is wrapped in tissue before being carefully placed into our specially imported Italian boxes, tested to rigorous standards. We have literally dropped them from the first storey of our house. All our packaging is paper-based and recyclable.
Can I send it as a gift?
Absolutely. As standard, our wines arrive wrapped in bespoke tissue paper. At checkout, you can also add gift bags, gift boxes and notes.
