Le Bourgogne Chardonnay 2016
Grape Variety : Chardonnay
Soil : Clay and limestone
Site : Côte Chalonnaise, Côte d'Or and more specifically Côte de Beaune.
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.
Tasting : Pale gold colour. Delicate floral fragrances mixed with citrus fruit on a hint of minerality. Well-structured and precise with a well-integrated acidity. Refreshing aftertaste with zesty notes.
Food pairing : Pâté, fish, charcuterie, and many goat cheeses.
