"Julien Mareschalâs chardonnay âCĂ´te de Caillotâ bottling is produced from a parcel of forty year-old vines planted on soils of limestone and gravel. The wine is fermented with native yeasts and raised in six hundred liter demi-muids that range from three to six years of age. The 2018 CĂ´te de Caillot is a lovely young wine, offering up a fine aromatic constellation of apple, fresh almond, chalky minerality, beeswax, gentle spice tones redolent of nutmeg and a topnote of spring flowers. On the palate the wine is zesty, full-bodied, focused and soil-driven, with a good core of fruit, excellent focus and balance and a long, vibrant and nascently complex finish. This is already quite tasty, but it is still a young wine and could do with a bit more bottle age to blossom and start to drink with complete candor. Fine juice."

The world's most influential fine-wine producer and the benchmark for Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne and the Rhone. Its appellation (AOC) system codifies geography, grape and method, and its wines set the global standard for age-worthiness and terroir expression.
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.
