Situation

Level
AOC Régionale
Grape variety
Chardonnay
Our Bourgogne Chardonnay "ORIGINES" is produced from vines located in the Côte de Beaune and Hautes-Côtes de Beaune. The diversity of their exposure and altitude allows us to work with a mosaic of plots. Consequently, we are able to achieve gorgeous aromatic complexity. The vines’ venerable age gives this wine particularly concentrated aromas, with straightforward and characteristic flavours.
Tasting
The predominant white flower and citrus nose leads to notes of honey and dried fruit. The palate is very well balanced, skilfully blending vivacity and roundness.
Food/wine pairing
This Bourgogne Chardonnay "Vieilles Vignes" with the charm of its aromatic palette, makes it a fine match for seafood, fish cooked in sauce, or simply prepared white meats.
Serving and keeping
Serve at 12°C. (54°F)
Ideally should be drunk when in the full fruitiness of its youth or can be laid for a few years to enhance its brioche hints.
