Information
Created by Jean-Luc Aegerter, this Burgundian house was then inherited by his son Paul. The two share a passion for nature, which guides them in producing top-quality wines. Situated in the Côte d'Or, in Nuits-Saint-Georges, the domain is nowadays expertly managed by Paul, who has brought his energy, taking the house's output off the beaten track to produce wines for enophile from all walks of life.
Jean-Luc Aegerter’s Burgundian estate produces this wine from Chardonnay cultivated in the Champ Gain vineyard, characterised by clay and limestone soils at altitudes of 300–400 metres. The hand-picked grapes are rigorously sorted and destemmed before pressing. The fruit is vatted and vinified in new demi-muids (500-litre containers) for between six months and a year.
Designed to be enjoyed young - wait for five years in any event - this wine displays a pale yellow colour with hints of green. A complex bouquet of white and citrus fruit, combined with dried fruit such as almond and hazelnut, honey, along with notes of pastry, fresh butter and minerals emerges. The House recommends a wide range of food pairings, from meat to seafood and cheese. These include lobster, grilled fish, foie gras, grilled poultry and Reblochon cheese.
