BOURGOGNE BLANC CÔTE CHALONNAISE - Domaine Champs-Perdrix - Emile Chandesais
Terroir
Côte Chalonnaise
Grape variety: Chardonnay
Marl or clay soil with limestone predominant
Vinification
Manual harvest
Vinification in stainless steel vats and in oak barrels, 1/5 of which are new
Ageing
At the end of spring when malo-lactic fermentation is finished, the cellar master creates a blend to get the oaked feel we’re looking for.
All the wine is then placed in stainless steel vats where it is fined before bottling in September
Colour
Tender yellow with golden tints
Nose
Lightly toasted with white flower and citrus aromas
Palate
Pleasant liveliness keeps this wine fresh and consolidates its structure.
The budding dried fruit flavours foretell its upcoming maturity
Wines & Food Pairing
This wine goes very well with shellfish and fish ‘en papillote’
A platter of delicatessen meats or a blue cheese would also make great partners for it
