COLLECTION REGIONAL APPELLATIONS
BOURGOGNE CHARDONNAY
With an open and expressive nose, Bourgogne Chardonnay never fails to impress with its wide aromatic range and lingering palate.
Suave and refreshingly bright, it offers notes of white-fleshed fruit and white blossoms.
It will be appreciated for its youth and generosity and can either be drunk on its own as an aperitif or accompany a dish of asparagus or creamed fish, or any other entree worthy of a Chardonnay.

A PERSONAL REFLECTION
Terroir, ORIGIN,
and identity
Bourgogne Blanc is made entirely from Chardonnay grapes harvested from designated vineyards as mentioned above. This is one of the world’s noblest white grapes, and it may have originated in Bourgogne in the 19th century.
This is a vigorous and fertile variety, which puts out growth early in spring; this increases the danger attached to spring frosts. The grape bunches are small and cylindrical, golden and amber when ripe.
