Domaine Harmand-Geoffroy Gevrey-Chambertin Vieilles Vignes 2021 is an elegant yet structured Burgundy Pinot Noir, crafted from old vines aged approximately 55–85 years across three historic parcels beneath the Premier Cru vineyard Les Champeaux. Produced by Philippe Harmand, this expressive wine combines the depth and concentration of old-vine fruit with the characteristic finesse of the 2021 vintage. The nose reveals fragrant aromas of ripe black cherries, red berries and plums, complemented by violets, earthy undertones and delicate spice. On the palate, concentrated fruit, vibrant acidity and finely textured tannins create an excellent balance of richness and freshness, leading to a long, savoury and mineral-driven finish.

Winemaker

Philippe Harmand, a fifth-generation family member, runs this family estate.
Established in the late nineteenth century, the Domaine comprises 9 hectares of vineyards, all planted with Pinot Noir and situated exclusively within the boundaries of Gevrey Chambertin. Cultivation remains very traditional, with no weeding, herbicides, chemical fertilisers, or insecticides being used. The harvest is done by hand. Following in his father Gérard’s footsteps, Philippe seeks to continue emphasising fruit rather than oak, elegance, finesse, and a faithful expression of individual vineyard sites.
