Origin
The appellation area spreads across 384 villages of the Yonne, Côte d’Or, Saône-et-Loire, and Rhône departments.
Starting in the North, from the region of Chablis and Auxerre, to the South in the region of Macon, and passing through the Côte d’Or and the Côte Chalonnaise, the Bourgogne wines stem from very diverse terroirs.
This wine mostly comes from the foothills vineyards. The relief shape from the Côte Chalonnaise and the Mâconnais regions gives soils blended with lime, clay and marl, with granitic nuances at the very South of the Saône-et-Loire department.
Vinification and maturing
Fermentation in stainless-steel vats at controlled temperature (between 18 and 20°C) to preserve the fruit. Bottling after 6 months aging on lees, including a part in oak barrels (with 15% new oak).
Vintage : 2022
The Weather : Uncertain conditions, but mild in the end throughout the season!
The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.
Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.
A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds.
The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
