The wine region of Montrachet Grand Cru

Mythical 7. 99-ha Grand Cru straddling Puligny and Chassagne-Montrachet in the Côte de Beaune, 100% Chardonnay: universally considered the greatest dry white wine in the world. Bright gold, nose of unparalleled complexity — white flowers, honey, hazelnut butter, roasted almond, candied citrus, ripe exotic fruits, toast and deep mineral notes. Dense, ample and opulent palate with preserved acidity and endless finish.


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: Table wine

Everything that is not VQPRD (European designation for all appellation wines: quality wine produced in a specific region). In principle, the bottom of the ladder. But, as in Italy a decade ago (Vino da Tavola), this category is also a refuge for wines that are out of the ordinary, whose producers refuse to accept certain grape variety or vinification dictates.
