Champs Perdrix, this name is quite common in the Côte de Nuits, found in the historic vineyards of Dijon, as well as in Couchey, Fixin, Vosne-Romanée, Nuits-Saint-Georges. It refers to a sloping land where limestone is abundant. The roots must look far into the soil for their food.

But let us accept it by reminding us of a story that can not be hidden from you. At the beginning of the XIXth century a dish was a rage in Paris: the Partridge in the fashion of Alcantara. Why? An illustrious Napoleonic and Burgundian general, Andoche Junot had plundered the monastery of Alcantara in Spain and had brought back only one warrant of war: the cookbook of the monks and the art of preparing this famous Partridge. We are Bourguignon or we are not! Become it, it is so simple and try the adventure of a partridge Vosne-Romanée Champs Perdrix.

The humus and the undergrowth often nuance their aromas under the flame and the dress, as well as the cherry with brandy, peony, leather and fur according to the virtues of the age.
