Monthelie red, 2009 vintage: Hachette 2012 wine guide "coup de coeur"
"Although Domaine Berthelemot was only established end 2006 and has been in production for 3 vintage years, it is already rated among the major players. In fact, Brigitte Berthelemot and her winemaker Marc Cugney have now been awarded their first "coup de coeur" for a superb pinot noir wine originating from land of marl and limestone with reddish clay. this wine has a deep red hue in the glass and a bouquet of black cherry and raspberry with a slight woody tone; it is supple on first taste followed by round, powerful tannins wrapped in red fruit flavours. in one year's time, this promising wine will go well with a genuine brie cheese or preferably, kept for 2 more years and served with lamb cutlets cooked with herbs.
" Beaune premier cru "Clos des Mouches" white, 2009 vintage:
"Brigitte Berthelemot established her domain in 2006 by taking over 2 estates in the Côte de Beaune area, giving a total of approx 7 ha. consisting in a number of well located plots; this explains why her domain produces one of the best known Beaune premier cru appellations, the "Clos des Mouches" ("mouches" at on time meant honey bees and not just flies!) a "climat" or plot alongside Pommard but available in both red and white. How the bees would be content if only they could savour the honeysuckle and acacia, hazelnut and moss aromas with which this wine is endowed when poured into the glass. The wine lover will be impressed by this vigourous wine which on first taste is round, rich and persistent, ideal for serving with scallops and girolle mushrooms. May be laid down for 3 to 5 years. The 2009 red, premier cru Beaune Grèves originates from another well known plot, the largest in the Beaune area; rich, and at first taste both fresh and fruity, it shows up well the soft savour of this vintage. As one of the judges states: "as a premier cru it deserves a star - may be laid down for 3 or 4 years."

Our Monthelie red, 2009 vintage is featured and given 15.5 marks out of 20 with the following comments:
"An additional sensation is derived from its full bodied fruit filled mouth, mature and elegant . Produced from 40 year old Pinot Noir vines it is nevertheless a modern wine without loss of character; it has depth and is well balanced and should be consumed within 4 years. Must be placed high on your list for tasting."

"Dear Chris,
It is not easy being the new kid on the block in Burgundy. You're surrounded by families that can trace their ancestry back to winemaking kings and lords; your neighbors' cellars are dusty with the traditions and histories of centuries past. So how's a newbie to claw through the pomp and pretense to make her name?
Simple. Have an eye for terroir and make some of the more pure and beautiful wines Beaune has seen since the monks were stomping the grapes themselves."
"Brigitte Berthelemot is shaking things up in Beaune with her 'garagiste' approach and her serious passion for all things Burgundy. A newbie, technically, she is not -- having worked for years in the region (and a local to boot) she finally realized her dream of starting her own domaine when a couple choice plots when up for sale. Her few, well-chosen selections -- from an elegant, spciy Monthelie to Beaune's most hallowed premier cru, "Clos des Mouches" -- are all stunning examples of what a good dose of elbow grease and uncompromising vision (not to mention a knock-out vintage) can produce.
We visited Brigitte during our Burgundy trip just two weeks ago to taste through her 2009s. For anyone who's ever worked in a start-up, Domaine Brigite Berthelemot is a familiar and exciting, place. Brigitte and winemaker Marc Cugney -- a talented Burgundy artisan who has been making wine in the region for years -- wear all the hats and are incredibly fired up about what they are creating.
They should be; 2009 is a year to celebrate and a hell of an IPO, to be sure. We've talked ourselves hoarse about the gorgeous fruit and great texture of the 2009 vintage, and what Brigitte has captured further shows just how succulent and rubied great Beaune wines can be when Mother Nature shows she loves Pinot Noir more than any other grape.
Of the hundreds of wines we tasted in the Cote de Beaune during our recent trip these had to be some of our favorites -- for their purity of fruit, their spice and their fidelity to great, great terroir. The following selections are made in micro-quantities (just as a 'garagiste' operation should be) and all by hand.
Pommard "Noizons" 2009
A deeper, more penetrating Pinot Noir with the unmistakable spiced profile that Pommard has in spades. A rich, ruddy berry salad mixes with sarsaparilla and a bit of licorice on the nose; the mouth drinks lushly and languorously, yet with good freshness and lift. Ripe raspberries, black cherries and baking spices mix and extend through a long finish."
Beaune 1er Cru "Clos des Mouches" 2009
Called "the most satisfying" of the Beaune premiers crus, "Clos des Mouches" may too be this walled city's most famous and complex. Brigitte blends grapes from the top of the slope and the bottom for a velvety, compex and lushly endowed Burgundian Pinot Noir with great staying power. Aromas remind of blackberriez, violets and lightly toasted tobacco; the mouth is full and silky, with impressive freshness and lift, suggestions ripe cherries and more blackberries with real vibrancy and thrust. A gorgeous wine!"

The Action Commerciale magazine n°311 of 1 February 2011 featured an article by Alain Marty, president of the Wine & Business Club, on Domaine Berthelemot and some of its major wines.
"Located in the heart of the Côte de Beaune district, Domaine Berthelemot with almost 6 hectares has some of the most famous Burgundy appellations of which Meursault "Les Charmes" and Beaune "Clos des Mouches".
Domaine Berthelemot is at an altitude of 320 metres, facing South-East and produces high quality wines.
In spite of the poor conditions during the winter of 2009 the harvest resulted in a very good sugar content giving body and persistence in taste to the wines.
The Meursault "Les Tillets" 100% Chardonnay is a notable wine with pear, mango and even passion fruit tones; raised in cask, this wine has exceptional structure and intensity and ideal for serving with pullet and truffles, rabbit with mustard or monkfish "à l'americaine"."

Marc Cugney from Meursault states: "...a token of gratitude"
"Manager of Domaine Berthelemot in Meursault, Marc Cugney supports the application of the Brugundy vineyards for listing in the UNESCO World Heritage sites.
He is employed by a young, but now reputable company, Domaine Berthelemot established by Brigitte Berthelemot who started her career in finance before devoting herself to the winetrade and taking on Marc Cugney, an accomplished winemaker; a reputation has already been built up for the domain's Pommard "Noizons" and Beaune "Clos des Mouches".
Marc Cugney is responsible for producing a number of appellations for which Burgundy is renowned - the reason for his commitment: "As soon as we heard about the project, we felt it our duty to become involved and took part in several meetings chaired by Aubert de Villaine, who had already done a lot of work for this application which is in our mutual interest from a number of aspects, whether concerning the land itself or its development over the centuries. It was by long practical experience that different areas were first defined before being more scientifically recognized later."
For Marc Cugney, listing by UNESCO would be: "A token of gratitude for both the human and natural element involved in the evolution of the land concerned".
A strong supporter of this local heritage, he adds: "Listing would be a means of considerably enhancing and preserving the Burgundy winelands".
An illustration is given from the winemarker's vantage point: "Take Meursault where we grow 2 wines "Charmes" and "Tillets" in two different plots in the same commune; the plot for "Les Tillets" is on high ground above the premiers crus and the wine is drier and mineral in taste. The plot for "Les Charmes" is located halfway up the slopes and the wine is richer and fatter and yet both plots are next to each other, the height difference no more than 80 meters but the wine is not at all the same: this is what characterizes Burgundy wines - with the same vine in the same commune the wine can be quite different!"
Convinced by the value of the application, Marc Cugney concludes: "Everyday we endeavour to help the project progress by the methods we use to manage the different plots and raise the wines according to the characteristics of the appellations, because this is the way winegrowers must work if the integrity of the area is to be preserved."
- Gilbert & Gaillard 2012 guide
-
Domaine Berthelemot submitted, for the first time, several wines at a tasting of the Gilbert & Gaillard guide. All received notes superior to 80/100!
- Beaune Longbois 2009:

- Beaune 1er cru Bélissand 2007:
"Medium intense colour, faint evolution. Open nose of ripe red fruits and fruit butter backed by a hint of toasted oak. The palate is a display ofpower, generosité and warmth with medium body."
- Beaune 1er cur Grèves 2008 :
"Fairly light colour, ruby highlights. Nose of ripe red fruits and subtil toasted notes. Full palace, refined, soft substance, wonderful freshness, focused fruit expression. A very enjoyable, feminine-style Beaune."

For the second year running we have been awarded a star by the Harchette wine guide, highlighting 3 of our wines: Beaune premier cru "Clos des Mouches" 2008 white, Beaune premier cru "Belissand" 2007 red and our Monthelie white 2008.
- Beaune premier cru Clos des Mouches white 2008:
"This is the second vintage and yet again another star for this domain owned by Brigitte Berthelemot, with wines made by Marc Cugney, which proves that the partnership is working well. Their Clos des Mouches has an attractive clear gold colour and white flower bouquet. After a well balanced first taste this becomes an elegant and persistent finess. May be drunk this Automn with sushis."
-Beaune premier cru Belissand red 2007:
"Produced from vines at the bottom of the slopes, this premier cru Belissand 2007 (15/23 euros) is certainly one of the lesser known plots in Beaune. In 2 years time, the tannins with spicy tones will become round and the wine will be at its best when tasted with game."
-Monthelie white 2008:
"This is the second vintage for Brigitte Berthelemot and winemaker Marc Cugney and this 2008 confirms their promising start for which they were awarded ons star last year for a red wine. This year, the white has the honours. Pale yellow in colour it has an expressive bouquet ranging from hawthorn to butter and mild woody notes. It is well balanced in the mouth, both fresh and round which confirms the winemaking skill (12 months in cask). May be drunk within the next 2 years".
- Guide Dussert-Gerber - 2011 edition

Our domain features in this new guide among the distinguisehd names, ie. the best classification for new domains, and our wines are in the category "1er grands vins" for the Côte de Beaune.
Herewith the comments made by P. Dussert-Grber on page 345:
"Very well listed - and justifiably. A domain of 6.5 ha in the Côters de Beaune region, where tradition is respected in accordance with the highest standards of agriculture raisonnée. Brigitte Berthelemot gives priority to maintaining the intrinsic quality of the grape. These standards are reflected in the attractive Beaune Longbois white 2008, produced from a plot of Chardonnay vines located at an altitude of 310m, well structured, complex and dense with tones of linden and small fresh fruit, for serving with freshwater fish in sauce (good value at 15.20 euros, see introduction).
The Beaune premier cru Clos des Mouches red 2008 has good aroma (fresh red fruit, humus...) with a discreet peppery tone common to the successful wines of this appellation (24 euros) fullbodied in the mouth, as with the Pommard Noizons 2007 gold medallist at the Concours Général Agricole 2010 with its characteristic deep purple colour and bouquet dominated by plum, violet and liquorice tones (21 euros).
You must also taste the Monthelie red 2008 (13 euros) and the Beaune premier cru Grèves red 2008 with good colour and aroma (cinnamon, leather and violet) firm on the nose and in the mouth, a wine which can be laid down (21 euros). Recommended without hesitation."

Par son intensité, le nez annonce déjà une belle concentration. La bouche est suave, tructurée tout en restant d'une grande harmonie. La complexité aromatique est au rendez-vous tout au long de la dégustation.
Beaune premier cru blanc Clos des Mouches : 14.5
Un permier nez boisé laisse la place à des notes florales d'une belle complexité. La bouche suave, puissante équilibrée par une bonne tension acide. Un vin harmonieux.

For the first time Domaine Berthelemot sent its firt vintages'wines, 2007 to the Guide Hachette selection; Clos des Mouches Blanc*et Clos des Mouches Rouge, Pommard Noizons et Monthélie Rouge* receive nice comments and quotation.
"Clos des Mouches 2007 Blanc *: "On n'attire pas les mouches avec du vinaigre", dit le proverbe. On a oublié qu'à l'époque médiévale, le mot mouche signifiait "abeille". Ce Clos des Mouches attirera quant à lui les oenophiles par sa couleur or soutenu et son arôme délicat de miel et de fleurs. Sa texture est douce et d'une grande persistance, ce qui lui permettra de patienter trois années en cave.Et si vous le préférez version pinot noir, sachez que le Clos des Mouches rouge 2007 attire aussi une étoile dans sa galaxie de fruits noirs reposant sur des tanins soyeux. A déguster dans sa pleine jeunesse."
"Pommard Noizons 2007: Née dans un lieu jadis planté de noyers, cette cuvée provient de deux parcelles mitoyennes, l'une en Noizons et l'autre en Petits Noizons. Les calcaires bruns caillouteux qui les soutiennent ont sorti de leur terre ferrugineuse une corbeille de fruits rouges et noirs auxquels se mêlent les arômes grillés de l'élevage. Les fruits confits qui enrobent la charpente et la finale poivrée font espérer une bonne évolution d'ici deux vendanges."
"Monthélie rouge 2007 *: Ce domaine fondé en 2006 exploite 6,5ha, dont plus de 1ha en Monthélie rouge. Voici son premier millésime dans le Guide. La robe grenat attire le regard; le nez, d'abord fermé, s'ouvre à l'agitation sur le fruit rouge et une note minérale. La bouche est plus expressive, portée par des tanins qui se posent en maîtres face à une cerise douce et épicée. Un vin jeune et prometteur, encore en devenir, à ouvrir en 2012. Qui a dit que le millésime 2007 ne serait pas de garde?"
- En Bourgogne
- Dans son dernier numéro, le magazine En Bourgogne a consacré un article au domaine Berthelemot, et à sa médaille d'or au concours général Agricole.« Dans un monde viticole qui semble figé par les traditions, est arrivé en cours d'année un petit nouveau. Il faut dire qu'il a bien préparé sa rentrée: deux ans d'un travail acharné, un travail en harmonie avec la nature, et la volonté d'obtenir le label Agriculture Raisonnée. Et le voilà intégré dans le petit monde des domaines de la côte de Beaune: le jeune Berthelemot. Derrière ce nom, c'est un prénom féminin que l'on découvre : Brigitte. Après sa rencontre avec le vinificateur Marc Cugney, elle reprend deux anciennes propriétés. Et pour sa première participation au Concours général agricole, son domaine décroche rien de moins que sa première médaille. Une médaille d'or pour le Beaune Longbois 2007 ! »

Ce n'est pas tous les jours qu'on inaugure un nouveau domaine viticole dans la très traditionnelle Bourgogne, et notamment à Meursault, où les places sont chères.
Ce fut le cas début avril avec le domaine Berthelemot, une nouvelle exploitation regroupant environ 7 hectares, sur les appellations Pommard, Monthelie, Beaune, Beaune Premier Cru (Grèves, Clos des Mouches) et Meursault Premier Cru Charmes. Ce domaine créé par Brigitte Berthelemot (naguère viticultrive en Val de Loire) sur la base des anciennes propriétés d'Yves Darviot et Jean Garaudet, a produit ses premiers vins en 2007 (35 000 bouteilles) - la cuverie est située sur Tailly: mais le caveau de dégustation, lui, vient seulement d'être mis en place au 24 Rue des Forges, à Meursault. L'exploitation a été confiée à Marc Cugney, ancien oenologue de la maison Chanson Père et Fils, passé par Beaune... et la Nouvelle-Zélande. Bon vent au nouveau domaine.

En 2008, le domaine Berthelemot a présenté un seul vin rouge à la dégustation des vins en cours d'élevage à la Revue du Vin de France. Le Pommard Noizons 2007 a été non seulement retenu mais encore très bien noté. Dans la catégorie des vins notés entre 17,5 et 15,5 sur 20, il figure parmi de nombreux vins de premier cru alors qu'il s'agit d'un Pommard village.

« 100% féminin : c'est donc un groupe 100% féminin qui s'est attelé à découvrir les subtilités de la conduite de l'enjambeur lors de neuf demi-journées de cours.»
L'objectif principal de cette formation est avant tout l'utilisation d'un enjambeur en toute sécurité. Les stages se sont déroulés autout de plusieurs points importants : la prévention et le démarrage du véhicule, les manoeuvres et prise de rang, mais aussi sur les différents types de labours, sur les traitements, rognages et même sur la tarière.
La conduite de l'enjambeur n'est pas réservée qu'aux hommes. Et les femmes le prouvent bien !
