"Almost all Vaillons proper with a bit of SĂ©chet. An expressive and highly nuanced nose of white pepper, spice, citrus, tidal pool and pear aromas is followed by complex and intense flavors that brim with dry extract. This is a relatively big Vaillons but it doesn't lack for punch and underlying tension on the balanced and palate staining finish."

Produces the world's most revered Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from a mosaic of tiny, terroir-defined climats. Its hierarchy of village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards makes site the ultimate expression of quality.
Produces steely, mineral Chardonnay from Kimmeridgian limestone in Burgundy's cool north, prized for precision, purity and saline drive.
The world's most versatile white grape, producing everything from steely Chablis to rich, oaked whites. Its neutrality makes it a mirror of terroir and winemaking, and the foundation of white Burgundy and Champagne.
