Domaine Danjean-Berthoux, Givry La Plante 2022

Domaine Danjean-Berthoux’s Givry La Plante 2022 is a refined red Burgundy from the Côte Chalonnaise, offering a polished balance between ripe fruit, silky tannins and subtle oak. Produced by a family domaine with roots in Jambles stretching back to 1958, it expresses the elegant, approachable character for which Givry is known.

Tasting Notes
Bright ruby in colour, the wine opens with inviting aromas of red berries, cherries and gentle woodland notes, complemented by discreet hints of vanilla and spice from its oak maturation. On the palate, it is balanced and supple, with silky tannins, fresh fruit and light toasted-wood nuances. Its graceful structure makes it enjoyable now, while careful cellaring over the next four to six years should allow added complexity to develop.

Production
Made from Pinot Noir grown around Givry in the Côte Chalonnaise, the wine reflects the area’s Burgundy terroir and the domaine’s sustainable approach to vineyard management. The grapes are carefully selected to preserve the character of the individual parcels, before the wine is matured for 12 months in oak barrels, 35% of which are new. This measured use of oak adds texture and gentle spice without overshadowing the fruit.

Food & Serving
A natural partner for slow-cooked and braised dishes, this Givry works especially well with beef bourguignon, roast poultry, veal and earthy mushroom preparations. Its supple tannins also complement mature cheeses. Serve lightly cool at around 14–16°C; a short decant of 20–30 minutes can help open the aromas, although older bottles are best handled gently.

Producer
Based in Jambles in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise, Domaine Danjean-Berthoux has built its reputation around Givry and Mercurey wines. Georges Berthoux took over the family business from his father, Charles Berthoux, in 1958 and gradually acquired parcels in Jambles, Givry and Mercurey over nearly four decades. His son-in-law Pascal Danjean joined the domaine in 1993 and took full control in 2002; today, Pascal and his son Charles-Antoine represent the third and fourth generations. The family combines long-standing local knowledge with sustainable vineyard practices, aiming to reveal the distinctive character of each terroir.
