Our philosophy

Uninhibited Burgundy

The philosophy of La Maison Emile Chandesais

Our philosophy is based on a simple idea: to combine the quality and excellence of Burgundy wines without imposing, on the uninitiated as well as on connoisseurs of fine wines, the complexity associated with the diversity of Burgundy wines.

While the diversity of Burgundy’s terroirs earned the climats their place on UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 2015, knowledge of them should not be reserved for connoisseurs alone.

Our philosophy translates simply: Burgundy without complexes.

the commitment of Maison Emile Chandesais

Leave behind everything you know or think you know about Burgundy wines and embark on an adventure where heritage and renewal merge.

With boldness and respect for a region rich in terroirs and climates, Émile Chandesais redefines Burgundy wines. Our commitment? To promote Burgundy’s excellence, by simplifying access to its treasures, without ever compromising quality. Because true greatness lies in the ability to reinvent oneself, while remaining true to one’s roots.

Celebrating Burgundy’s terroir

Our wines are the expression of a terroir, but also of a vision: that of a modern Burgundy, where the expression of fruit is paramount, tannins are fine, and acidity is perfectly balanced. We seek to magnify the unique character of each parcel, in harmony with a respectful and sustainable approach to viticulture, so that each glass is an authentic reflection of its origin.

Passing on an inheritance

More than a range of wines, Émile Chandesais symbolizes the transmission of passion, know-how and stories woven in the heart of Burgundy. From the pioneering spirit of Émile Chandesais to the contemporary vision of Samuel Montgermont and David Fernez, each bottle is a tribute to this long heritage, a celebration of Burgundy’s richness and diversity, offered to all.
