ORIGIN

In the heart of the Côte de Beaune, this appellation is part of the famous ‘golden triangle’ of Burgundy's three great white villages: Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.  

The vineyards cover just over 330 hectares and production is equally divided between white and red wines.

The name of Chassagne is one of the most esteemed and recognised throughout the world for the great Chardonnay wines of Burgundy. Nearly half the vineyards are classified as Premier Cru or Grand Cru, and the village shares with Puligny, Montrachet, one of Burgundy's emblematic white grands crus.

VINIFICATION AND MATURING

The Chardonnay were hand picked, sorted and then pressed. A cold settling was realised during 48 hours at a temperature of 8°C (46°F.). The must was then placed into oak barrels (30% new ones, 40% one year old barrels and 30% 2 years barrels) for both the alcoholic and malolactic fermentation.

Ageing for 12 months in those barrels without stirring.
