"From vines planted in 1943. The natural exoticism of a fine Genevrières is present on the aromas of spiced tea, white peach, citrus confit, especially lemon rind and a whiff of quinine. There is both impressive volume and mid-palate concentration to the refined and vibrant medium weight flavors that also exude a lovely minerality on the more complex, lengthy and well-balanced finale. Excellent juice with promising development potential."

The Cote de Beaune's largest white-wine village, known for rich, nutty, buttery Chardonnay of generous texture.
2019 in Burgundy combined spring frost and summer drought to cut yields, producing concentrated yet balanced wines; the reds are ripe and structured with retained freshness, making an excellent, ageworthy vintage in both colors.
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.
