The Coteaux Bourguignons appellation area merges with that of the Burgundy appellation. It covers around 300 hectares and 384 communes, stretching from the Chablis and Auxerrois regions in the north to the Mâconnais region in the south, via the Côte d'Or and Côte Chalonnaise.

The Coteaux Bourguignons appellation exists for red, white and rosé wines. The special feature of this appellation is that it can be produced from a blend of grape varieties. Our grapes come from the Côte de la Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and the north of the Mâconnais.

- Terroirs made up of clay and marl with hints of granite.
- Hilly terrain.
- South-east and south-facing.

The grapes were completely destemmed. Maceration and fermentation under controlled temperature with punching of the cap twice a day. Two weeks in fermentation vats at an average temperature of 25-28°C. After pressing, the temperatures were lowered and the wine transferred to stainless steel vats to retain as much of the fruit flavour as possible. Malolactic fermentation took place at 100% to allow the wine to soften.

2022 brought uncertain conditions, but was finally mild throughout the season!

The harvest took place from around 25 August to 16 September.

The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure, giving balanced and honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot.

2022 is a pleasant vintage in terms of quality with good yields, for both whites and reds. The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
