Description

After 2022, another year that brings joy to our hearts. Free from major climatic turmoil, graced by a gentle winter and a splendid spring bloom, 2023 quickly hinted at a generous harvest to come. Summer unfolded like a mysterious dance—between waves of heat and refreshing coolness, dry spells and sudden, stormy rains. The harvest reached its full potential, with varying ripeness from one plot to another, making 2023 a vintage that reveals, more than ever, the singular soul of each terroir.

Coming from 2 plots near the village of Puligny-Montrachet, our Burgundy Chardonnay benefits from the same growing practices and the same attention in the cellar as our Premiers and Grands Crus. We like to present it as an introduction to Burgundy and our style: purity, authenticity and elegance.The wine and the style.

After a light settling, the musts are put into 228 and 600-liter-barrels to complete the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations. We work with 5 to 20% new barrels with wood coming mostly from Allier, light toasting. The wines are racked about a year later before being transfered to stainless steel vats for the second phase of their aging in order to retain freshness and minerality.

Organic since 1995 and biodynamic since 2005. All our wines are certified by Ecocert.

Review
(80% of the fruit is from Meursault with the remainder from Puligny). Ripe and fresh aromas of petrol, apple and pear slide into impressively dense and unusually sleek, for a Bourgogne, flavors that conclude in a lingering citrus-tinged finale. Good quality for this level plus it should repay a few years of keeping.

Mid lemon and lime, indeed primrose.
