The wine region of Maranges
Southern terminus of the Côte de Beaune (3 villages merged in 1989): signature Pinot Noir as ruling red (~80%) — deep ruby robe with signature fruity cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant aromas heightened by spicy and floral notes, elegant structure with present silky tannins, 5-10 year ageing. Chardonnay complements (~20%). Microclimate warmer than northern Côte de Beaune, south-southeast slopes 280-400 m, clay-limestone soils, AOC 1988, 7 Premiers Crus, remarkable value.
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.
