Bourgogne Chardonnay 2020

-
Pale yellow in color with hints of gold, this Burgundy Chardonnay’s bouquet offers notes of ripe citrus and white flowers. The palate is fresh and generous, with delicious notes of almonds. The long, mouthwatering finish is complemented by the richness of this vintage. It can age gracefully for at least the next 10 years in your cellar.

The limestone-rich soils of the Côte de Beaune are perfect for producing our Bourgogne Chardonnay, a well-balanced, fruity and fresh wine showing the potential of the Chardonnay grape. The most approachable appellation of Burgundy embodies the essence of the region’s native white grape. We see it as a welcoming entry to all the Villages, Premiers Crus and Grands Crus the region's vineyards have to offer.
