Wine Region: Burgundy - France
Grape: 100% Chardonnay.
Tasting notes: Pale gold colour. Floral fragrances mixed with aromas of exotic fruit and pale fleshed fruit on a hint of minerality Well balanced with a well-crafted minerality. Refreshing aftertaste.
The Vintage 2016 : After a cool and rainy winter and a frost episode in April, the weather at the end of spring was warmer but rainy which engendered a late flowering. The summer was warm and dry. September was warm and the harvest took place mid september under a bright sunshine. The white wines are precise and taut and develop very pure aromas.
How to Enjoy: With charcuteries, fish and all sorts of mild cheeses.

They farm organically, harvest all grapes and vinify all wines, both for their estate holdings and contracted vineyards.
