“Together with de Villaine, if I could pick only one domaine from the Côte de Chalonnaise then it would be this domaine. Simply brilliant wines, year-in, year-out “
- Bill Nanson, Burgundy report
With 5.5-hectares spread across eight appellations, the 200 year-old domaine has been revitalised by Frédéric Gueugneau, who had worked previously at La Chabliesienne for eight years. The vineyards are now all certified organic. The wines strongly favour the intelligent approach of infusion of extraction, seasoned oak and some whole clusters. The results are energetic and precise. Fred is also not afraid to experiement -
the Chalonnaise rouge on offer is a direct press Pinot noir that wouldnt look out of place in the Jura.
