Le Bourgogne Chardonnay 2021

Grape Variety : Chardonnay

Soil : Clay and limestone

Site : Côte Chalonnaise, Côte d'Or and more specifically Côte de Beaune.

The Vintage 2021 : After a winter characterized by marked variations in temperature and a summer like weather spring, a sudden and intense frost fell upon Burgundy early April and severely hit the buds that had formed on the vine. The months that followed were a succesion of rainy and warm episodes. During summer there were warm and humid periods. The harvest started at Chanson on September 15, under a bright sunshine. The white wines display floral fragrances mixed with pale fleshed fruit aromas. They are precise and tense but the volumes poduced are quite low.

Tasting : Pale gold colour. Delicate floral fragrances mixed with pale fleshed fruit and almond on a hint of minerality. Well-structured and precise. Well integrated acidity. Tense with a refreshing aftertaste.

Food pairing : Pâté, fish, charcuterie, and many goat cheeses.
