| Soil composition |
It is comprised of 3 different vine plots: Cherbaudes is located at the foot of Chambertin Clos de Bèze: the soils are red and chalky; their relative shallowness allows excellent natural drainage; Petite Chapelle: the soils here are naturally less well drained than in Chapelle-Chambertin. The slope is not particularly steep and the soils contain lots of stones and gravel; Bel Air: a small vine plot overlooking Chambertin Clos de Bèze, the slope is quite steep and its soil has a high content of limestone. |
