Description

The domaine has a bit more vineyard coming back into production, with 0.38 hectares now available. There is a spicy edge to the wine, not reduction says Sylvie, but coming from the soil. This has a significant, impressive degree of grip for this wine. It is what the French call “droit” – straight and with a note of “fusil” – gunflint.

Burgundy is Chardonnay's spiritual home and the best White Burgundies are dry, rich, honeyed wines with marvellous poise, elegance and balance. They are unquestionably the finest dry white wines in the world. Chardonnay plays a crucial role in the Champagne blend, providing structure and finesse, and is the sole grape in Blanc de Blancs.
