Additional Information: One of the original Grandes Marques of 1882, Domaine Edouard Brun is a small, family owned House in the prestigious, Grand Cru village of Aÿ . Today Edouard Brun’s Grandsons, Emmanuel and Philippe run the company and produce approximately 250,000 (compared to Moet’s 30 million) bottles annually, they have eight hectares of their own vineyards (accounting for around half their production) and grower contracts that permit a larger scale than would otherwise be possible.
The Domaine produces wines that are rich and rounded in style, partly due to the use of neutral barrels for all Pinot Noir. 50/50 blend of Grand Cru Chardonnay and Premier Cru Pinot Noir grapes. Prolonged lees and bottle age are a hallmark of Brun's vintage wines, bringing autolytic and secondary flavours.
