    Description Bourgogne Chardonnay "Les Grandes Coutures"

    Estate

    Domaine Xavier Monnot is a family-run estate based in Meursault, Burgundy, covering around 17 hectares in the Côte de Beaune. Xavier Monnot, the sixth generation winemaker, uses sustainable viticulture practices. The estate is reputed for its precise and elegant white wines. Traditional methods and respect for terroir are central to the estate's philosophy. Focus is given to vineyard work and minimal intervention in the cellar.

    Vineyard

    This Bourgogne Chardonnay comes from vineyards near Meursault and Monthelie. The plots benefit from clay-limestone soils and favorable exposures. The vineyard is managed using reasoned farming approaches with a focus on low yields. Manual harvesting ensures fruit quality. The average vine age allows for concentrated and expressive wines.

    Wine

    This Bourgogne Chardonnay is a dry white wine that combines freshness and richness. It displays a fine balance between mineral tension and round fruit. The style is elegant and terroir-driven. This is a great introduction to the white wines of Burgundy. It can be enjoyed young or after a few years of aging.

    Vintage

    The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was shaped by a cold spring and frost, leading to reduced yields. A mild summer enabled slow and even ripening. The resulting wines are marked by freshness, bright acidity, and aromatic precision. The whites are focused, pure and well balanced. It is a classic Burgundian vintage with great finesse.

    Vinification & Aging

    Grapes are gently pressed and fermented with indigenous yeasts in oak barrels. The aging lasts 12 to 14 months with a moderate amount of new oak. Batonnage is minimal to maintain tension. Wines are blended and lightly filtered before bottling. This process highlights the purity of Chardonnay.

    Grape Variety

    100% Chardonnay
