Their reputation rests on treating Mâconnais Chardonnay with the methods of the Côte d'Or: whole-bunch pressing, fermentation and ageing in barrel, long contact with the lees and little intervention beyond that. The Bourgogne Blanc appellation covers Chardonnay grown across Burgundy and sits below the named village appellations, which makes it the least expensive way into a domaine of this standing. Much of the Mâconnais fruit that goes into wine at this level comes from limestone slopes not far from the domaine's own vines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eServe at around 11 degrees with goat's cheese, white fish or a green salad; it is made to be drunk within its first few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
