The Burgundy appellation covers 384 communes, stretching from the Chablis and Auxerrois regions in the north to the Mâconnais region in the south, passing through the Côte d'Or and Côte Chalonnaise. Burgundy wines come from a wide variety of terroirs. Our Burgundy wines are made from a blend of grapes from the Côte Chalonnaise and Côte de Beaune, which bring fruitiness and roundness, with Auxerrois grapes for freshness. The terroirs of origin are varied, with the sometimes chalky or Kimmeridgian limestone hillsides of the north, the marly limestone of the Côte d'Or and the clay and marl, sometimes with hints of granite, in Saône-et-Loire.
The hand-picked and sorted grapes are destemmed, crushed, and then placed in concrete vats for a cold pre-fermentation maceration lasting 8 to 10 days at 8–10°C. Alcoholic fermentation follows, with daily punch-downs and pump-overs to extract colour and tannins. After racking, the free-run and press juices are blended in stainless steel tanks for natural clarification. The clear juice and fine lees are then transferred to barrels for ageing, with at least 6 months in oak for over 50% of the blend (100% oak barrels, with 25% new oak - both French and American).
The 2025 growing season in Burgundy was marked by a rainfall deficit of around 30% and an early harvest, beginning on August 25 in the Côte de Beaune.
Despite more unsettled weather at the start of harvest, grape health was excellent, with fine aromatic concentration.
Red wines show gentle extraction and good colour, while whites combine richness and concentration with vibrant freshness.
Overall, 2025 is shaping up as a vintage of character and quality for both red and white Burgundies.
