Domaine Julien Cruchandeau Description
Julien Cruchandeau originally set out to become a chef, but he missed being outside, so he changed track and enrolled at wine school in Beaune. After school he got a job in Gevrey-Chambertin, at Domaine Seguin. He points out that whether you are cooking, playing music or making wine there are definitely some similarities. The methods are different, he says, but you are using instruments to transform raw material into a product, and you are working a lot with your senses.
From two plots planted in 1980 totaling .45 hectares. Les Petits Picotins has an eastern exposure at an altitude of 240 meters, while Les Vermets has a due south exposure on steep slopes.
Sourced from two lieux-dits: Petits Picotins and Vermots.
Aged about 12 months in oak barrels (20% new).
