J. Coudray-Bizot

Coudray-Bizot is a historic Burgundy estate located in the prestigious Côte de Nuits. The winery is owned by Charles Van Canneyt, who took over from his grandfather Claude Coudray-Bizot, continuing a multi-generational tradition. The family estate stands out for its respect for the ancient winemaking traditions of Burgundy – natural fermentation, aging in oak barrels, and minimal intervention, all allowing the expressive terroir to shine.

The estate pays meticulous attention to vineyard care, applying both organic and biodynamic methods to preserve soil vitality and biodiversity. The Coudray-Bizot philosophy is rooted in the belief that great wine is born when nature and human work in harmony. The focus is on ‘Pinot Noir’ and ‘Chardonnay’ – the classic grapes of Burgundy – here achieving a remarkable balance of depth, structure, and elegance.

Wine Style

Coudray-Bizot wines embody classic Burgundian elegance, complexity, mineral precision, and impressive aging potential. These are wines made for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring.

• Red wine – primarily crafted from ‘Pinot Noir’. These wines are subtle yet profound, offering notes of red berries, herbs, spices, and earthy nuances. They have polished tannins, well-integrated acidity, and excellent longevity.
• White wine – made from ‘Chardonnay’. These wines are elegant and mineral-driven, with hints of white peach, citrus, honey, and delicate oak. The texture is rich yet supported by a refreshing structure.
