ORIGIN


The area which constitutes the Bourgogne appellation spreads across 384 villages of the Yonne, Côte d’Or, Saône-et-Loire, and Rhône departments. Varied terroirs with limestone hillsides, sometimes chalky or Kimmeridgian in the North, with the marl and limestone of the Côte d’Or and the clay with hints of granite from the Saône and Loire.

Our Bourgogne Blanc is a blend of Chardonnay grapes from various origins; this allows it to benefit from the northern wines’ freshness, minerality, and vigor; the Macon and Côte chalonnaise wines’ fullness and roundness, and the Côte d’Or wines’ power and complexity.


VINIFICATION AND MATURING


The grapes are first sorted and then pressed when they arrive at the winery. The musts are settled and then vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats using selected yeasts. The vinification temperature is between 16° and 18°C, allowing optimum extraction of the wine's aromatic potential. Ageing continues in stainless steel vats for 80% of the blend and in oak barrels for the remaining 20%, on the lees for 6 to 8 months. Malolactic fermentation is complete, making the wine more supple.
