WINEMAKING PHILOSOPHY
The Tollot-Beaut cellar is in the center of Chorey-lès-Beaune on the rue Alexandre Tollot,
named after Nathalie’s great grandfather who was once the Mayor of Chorey. Parts of
the meticulously kept cellar are over 250 years old. Chardonnay is pressed pneumatically
and starts fermentation in stainless-steel tanks before finishing alcoholic and malolactic
fermentation in barrel. Pinot Noir is almost entirely de-stemmed. The wines of Tollot-Beaut
were once made with more new oak but in recent years the oak influence has become subtler.
Village and regional wines receive about 20% new oak while the Grand Crus receive about
60% new oak.
