Unique Burgundy AOC in the Yonne (southwest Auxerre, only Burgundy AOC using Sauvignon): Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris signature white kings — pale robe evolving from lime and grapefruit to lilac and acacia floral notes, discreet Kimmeridgian limestone minerality, clean palate with integrated acidity, chiselled mineral finish. Atypical Burgundian cépage, pairs with oysters, shellfish and fresh goat's cheese.
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: Maceration
Prolonged contact and exchange between the juice and the grape solids, especially the skin. Not to be confused with the time of fermentation, which follows maceration. The juice becomes loaded with colouring matter and tannins, and acquires aromas. For a rosé, the maceration is short so that the colour does not "rise" too much. For white wines too, a "pellicular maceration" can be practised, which allows the wine to acquire more fat.
