The wine region of Saint-Romain
Perched appellation in the heights of the Côte de Beaune (>300 m): Chardonnay signature as king white — golden robe with green hints and signature mineral profile with notes of white flowers (acacia, hawthorn, lime), citrus and a flint touch, lively palate becoming unctuous with age. Pinot Noir as fresh elegant red (black cherry, redcurrant, raspberry, smoked spices, fine tannins). AOC (1947), ~110 ha, marl-limestone slopes, fresh semi-continental climate.
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Generous
Full-bodied, rich and open wine, in principle with a good alcohol content but without excess (in this case the wine is said to be warm).
