    Cuvée presentation

    Calling all lovers of white Meursault, this wine is THE discovery of the year. Although this Chardonnay is classified under the Burgundy appellation, it far exceeds the quality of its category. This noble Burgundian grape variety comes from old vines cultivated mainly on a plot which adjoins some of the finest terroirs of the area. These old vines are meticulously worked using a biodynamic cultivation in order to let the grapes eventually express the quintessential qualities of their original terroir in the wine.
    This is a philosophy which is clearly in evidence in the cellar. The fermentation process is triggered by native yeasts which ensures that the distinctive character of the wine is preserved. The vinification is carried out in wooden barrels, in demi-muids (1/3) and Burgundian casks (2/3). These receptacles have only ever contained the same Cru in order to preserve the unique qualities of this white Burgundy.
    Tasting the wine is somewhat of a surprise. It is difficult to imagine when contemplating its lovely pale yellow colour tinted with glints of green that it would have such a complex blend of aromas. We can detect hints of fresh herbs, nuts such as hazelnut and fresh almond, white fruits like pear, apple and flat peach as well as citrus fruits, white pepper, mint and ginger. These aromas lead marvellously into a dense and lively palate invigorated by vibrant flavours and a flavoursome finish. A great gastronomic wine.
