Descrizione

The Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Fonteny produced by Mark Haisma is an exceptional quality red wine, hailing from the renowned Burgundy region in France. This wine, cultivated in one of the most prestigious crus of Gevrey-Chambertin, expresses the unique character of its terroir.

The heart of this wine lies in its Pinot Noir grapes, carefully selected and handpicked. Mark Haisma's winemaking focuses on an environmentally respectful approach, preferring biodynamic practices and minimizing the use of chemicals. This natural process helps preserve the true essence of the fruit.

Upon tasting, the Gevrey-Chambertin 1er Cru Fonteny reveals complexity and elegance. It opens with notes of ripe red fruit and hints of spices, followed by nuances of wet earth and minerals, typical of the extraordinary Gevrey-Chambertin terroir. On the palate, the wine is well-structured, with soft yet persistent tannins that promise excellent aging potential.

Ideal for special occasions, this wine pairs beautifully with refined dishes such as beef fillet, roasted lamb, or aged cheeses. It is recommended to decant for at least an hour before serving to enhance all its properties.

Winery history

Born and trained in Australia — including a long, decade-long tenure at Yarra Yering — Mark Haisma moved to Burgundy at the start of his European career and began releasing wines as a négociant with the 2009 vintage. Over the years he has developed his project by establishing his own winery and by acquiring vineyards and a small domaine in Gevrey‑Chambertin toward the end of the 2010s. He is known both for purchasing grapes from trusted local growers and for managing his own parcels, progressively expanding his presence across various subzones of Burgundy, with a few projects also in the Rhône and the Mâconnais.

Production philosophy

A pursuit of purity and balance: rigorous attention to vineyard work, minimal use of oak and winemaking practices that prioritize the expression of place rather than cellar interventions. It favors wines with a fresh, precise palate that reflect each climat.

Terroir and vineyards

Operates primarily in the Côte de Nuits and other areas of Burgundy, with occasional ventures into the Northern Rhône for some wines.
