Chapelle-Chambertin

Chapelle-Chambertin is an Appellation d'origine contrôlée (AOC) and Grand Cru vineyard for red wine in the Côte de Nuits subregion of Burgundy, with Pinot noir as the main grape variety.

[1] It is located in the southern part of the commune of Gevrey-Chambertin and on the lower hillside east of Chambertin-Clos de Bèze (on the other side of the Route des Grands Crus) and north of Griotte-Chambertin.

[3] In 2008, 5.48 hectares (13.5 acres) of vineyard surface was in production within the AOC, and 176 hectoliter of wine was produced,[4] corresponding to just over 23,000 bottles.

The allowed base yield is 37 hectoliter per hectare, a minimum planting density of 9,000 vines per hectare and a minimum grape maturity of 11.5 per cent potential alcohol is required.

[5] Within this larger grand cru are two climats whose names may appear on wine labels: la Chapelle and Les Gémeaux.
