The wine region of Sainte-Marie-la-Blanche
Sainte-Marie-la-Blanche is the PGI title for red, white and rosé wines that are produced in a region of CentralBurgundy, just east of the Côte de Beaune. The catchment area of the PGI roughly mirrors the Length of the Côte de Beaune, only a few kilometres to the east and on the lower, flatter floor of the valley that borders the Saône. A total of 20 small parishes in the South of the Côte d'Or department are covered by the title of Sainte-Marie-La-Blanche, which surrounds the Village of the same name located just 6. 5 km south-east of Beaune.
The word of the wine: Oxidative (breeding)
A method of ageing which aims to give the wine certain aromas of evolution (dried fruit, bitter orange, coffee, rancio, etc.) by exposing it to the air; it is then matured either in barrels, demi-muids or unoaked casks, sometimes stored in the open air, or in barrels exposed to the sun and to temperature variations. This type of maturation characterizes certain natural sweet wines, ports and other liqueur wines.
