The key to discovering the extraordinary diversity of Gevrey-Chambertin is found in the cellars of Domaine Livera.
The family’s ancient, ice-cold cellar (in which wine barrels share space with homemade saucisson) and the faded pictures of family members in the vineyards over the ancient hearth give you a sense of just how connected the Liveras are with the rugged beauty and generations-deep traditions of Gevrey.
Today Damien Livera is at the helm, the fourth generation of Livera winemakers in Gevrey. Crafting some of the region’s more terroir-true, supple and elegant wines, Damien has quickly established himself as one of the top young winemakers in the Côte de Nuits.

WINEMAKING: Hand-harvested. Grapes are destemmed and fermented on indigenous yeasts in tank. Aged in French oak barrels, with approximately 40% new barrels. Bottled unfined and unfiltered.
TASTING IMPRESSIONS: Aromas of black and white pepper, red berries and licorice. Refined and mineral, with medium tannins.
PAIRING SUGGESTIONS: Roast lamb; beef in sauce; truffled dishes
