A regional appellation, made principally from Chardonnay grapes, our Coteaux Bourguignons can be produced from vineyards throughout the Greater Burgundy area. It becomes the 101st appellation in Burgundy, created in 2011, with a name that evokes a terroir and an expertise; a wine which allows consumers to gain access to high-quality pure Burgundy wine at a modest price. It offers the wine-lover the joy of discovery, the pleasure of tasting and comparing and the opportunity to learn more about this famous region. As Gaston Roupnel would say, this new Burgundy appellation will succeed "allowing the wine-loving world to drink the health of France!".
Full bunches of grapes are pressed; about 140 kg of grapes are required to produce 100 litres of wine. The must is vinified in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks enabling an alcoholic fermentation at about 18°C. As such, we conserve the maximum fruitiness and primary aromas of the Chardonnay grape. Malo-lactic fermentation took place to enable the wine to soften and prepare for bottling.
