"All the facets of Beaune in a single wine"

“Here is a fine example of what was possible with Chardonnay in Burgundy in 2021: astonishing aromatic complexity—flint, ripe lemon, fresh pineapple with hints of mint and elderflower—is paired with a very elegant, wonderfully silky, medium-bodied palate. The long, delicately chalky finish is precisely underscored by fine tannins. Already delicious! A wine with great aging potential. Drink now or save for later.” (James Suckling 2023)

Rated estate (2023 guide): 4*Stars (Producers of the very highest quality, the pride of French viticulture)

About the estate:

From Cazetiers to Bouzeron, this major Beaune wine merchant founded in 1731 owns more than 142 plots spanning 130 hectares of vineyards, including 73 hectares of Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards. This first-rate viticultural heritage enables Frédéric Weber, a talented winemaker who previously managed Château de Poncié, to produce approximately 600,000 bottles out of the total three million units produced here each year; the majority of production comes from purchased grapes for the great reds and from carefully selected musts for the whites, other than those from the estate. Impressive success with both white and red wines in recent vintages.
