Domaine Bertheau is managed by François Bertheau, who took over from his father Pierre in 2003. I feel a special affection for this domaine as the carpenter who worked on our house in Burgundy (Daniel Sirandré, now retired – he really liked doing staircases) used to work part-time for the Bertheaus, and he presented us with a Bonnes Mares 1985 and a bottle of Chambolle Amoureuses 1972 when we dropped in to pay the bill. As well as those two vineyards François Bertheau, who took over from his father Pierre in 2003, produces Les Charmes and a blended Chambolle premier cru made from Les Groseilles, Gruenchers, Noirots and Baudes.
