✨ Technical Specifications
An overview of Frédéric Cossard's red winemaking in Burgundy reveals a passionate quest for purity, life, and energy. Operating from his base in Saint-Romain, Cossard crafts his red Burgundy wines—exclusively from Pinot Noir—using a strict non-interventionist approach. Eschewing synthetic chemicals in the vineyards and sulfur in the cellar, he utilizes whole-cluster fermentation with native yeasts. The wines are aged in a combination of neutral oak barrels, concrete eggs, and occasionally Georgian qvevris. This unique methodology yields exceptionally vibrant, living expressions of Burgundy's legendary limestone terroirs, characterized by bright red berry fruit, earthy complexity, and a silky, texturally captivating mouthfeel that redefines traditional Burgundy.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1996 by Frédéric Cossard in Saint-Romain, Domaine de Chassorney and the namesake Frédéric Cossard label have emerged as touchstones of Burgundy's natural wine movement. Committed to uncompromising minimal intervention, Cossard practices organic and biodynamic viticulture, vinifying with indigenous yeasts and eschewing fining, filtration, and added sulfur. The estate is distinguished by its innovative aging vessels, balancing seasoned oak barrels with Georgian clay qvevris to preserve absolute varietal purity and terroir transparency. Celebrated for exceptional cuvées across Burgundy, Beaujolais, and the Jura, the domaine crafts radiant expressions of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay such as Bedeau and Bigotes, alongside sought-after amphora-aged and experimental bottlings.
