Danjean Berthoux
Danjean Berthoux works the Côte Chalonnaise, Bourgogne's southern tier of limestone slopes and clay soils where Pinot Noir thrives in a cooler, continental climate. The winery's portfolio centers on this single variety, expressed across appellations from the broader Bourgogne designation to the premier cru vineyards of Givry. The Bourgogne Pinot Noir anchors the range—a wine that captures the region's essential character. Above it sit two premier cru bottlings: Givry 1er Cru 'Clos du Cras Long' and Givry 1er Cru 'La Plante,' each drawn from distinct parcels within Givry's classified sites. These wines reflect the Côte Chalonnaise's reputation for elegant, mineral-driven Pinots with structure and aging potential, less opulent than their Côte d'Or neighbors but marked by precision and terroir definition. Wine Spectator has rated the portfolio.
