Tasting note
Elegant white Burgundy, taut and fresh, from young vines in Puligny-Montrachet: a mouthful of green apple, a fragrance of vanilla and a fine spray of refreshing lemon.
Viticulture
Alain Chavy’s Bourgogne Blanc comes from young vines grown in Puligny where the wines typically show green and yellow fruit, firm acidity and distinctive minerality. This Bourgogne Blanc, while light in body, is taut and fresh in character.
Vinification
Alain inoculates for fermentation and believes in keeping bâtonnage to a minimum. He uses a combination of 400-liter oak puncheons and just 10% new Burgundian pièce for the Bourgogne Blanc. “We’re looking for balance between the fruit and oak character,” explains Alain. “We want the wines’ minerality to show through.”
Food Match
With a rich texture and toasted flavours, it pairs well with white fish and shellfish, its naturally high acidity can balance cream-based sauces. Oak-aged Chardonnay from warm climates pairs well with grilled fish, starches, butter and toasted nuts.
