Tasting notes
Lightly touched by wood aging, this ripe wine is both crisp and rich. Its briskness brings in a mineral edge while the ripeness produces the rich apple and apricot fruits. This full wine is ready to drink. Matured on fine lees with regular stirring gives this wine amazing body and smooth richness that is so important to its balance. This Chardonnay Vieilles Vignes (old-vines) possesses the cardinal qualities of Burgundy’s best white wines. The grapes selected for this wine come from vines on the Cote d’Or that are more than 20 years-old. The predominant white flower and citrus nose leads to notes of honey and dried fruit. The palate is very well balanced, skillfully blending vivacity and roundness.
Estate
One of Burgundy's largest wine Domain's. Its prestigious heritage, which comprises a remarkable
Chateau with a glazed tile roof and 90 hectares of vineyards, is the product of a time-old legacy
that is closely tied to the history of the Burgundy wine region. This remarkable chateau, with its
varnished tiles, is a spectacular piece of heritage closely tied to the region's history. Its
vineyards are split between the Cote d'Or and Cote Chalonnaise. The diversity of its 'climats' results
in a rich palette of wines with distinctive styles that reflect the subtleties of the Burgundy varietals.
The estate began its organic conversion in 2021 across its 100 hectares of owned vineyards and has been certified since the summer of 2024. The 2024 vintage is the first produced under organic farming.
