ORIGINS: A regional appellation grown throughout the wine-growing area of Burgundy.

The Bourgogne blanc appellation covers approximately 1000 hectares. Throughout the wine-growing area, there are multiple terroirs that allow a wide range of aromas in the wines.

Our white Bourgogne “RESERVE” is mainly made of Chardonnay grapes harvested on selected terroirs in the south of Burgundy: in the Maconnais area and Cote Chalonnaise. A small part of our cuvee is also coming from the Cote de Beaune vineyards.

This is where our viniculturist plays a very important role in the selection of the grapes, as he is responsible of the Chardonnay expression in the respect of the House’s know-how and style.

VINIFICATION AND MATURING: Vinification in stainless steel tanks and in oak barrels for 30% of this “RESERVE” cuvee, followed by a 6 months ageing in oak barrels (including 15% new barrels).
