Description Wine Producer: Domaine Chanson Country: France Region: Burgundy Production Area: Savigny Les Beaune Grape Type: Chardonnay Colour: White Vineyard: Site: White wines are very unusual in Savigny-les-Beaune, the vineyards producing essentially red wines. The particular nature of the soil “Hauts Marconnets” with Marl, chalk and limestone encouraged Chanson to plant Chardonnay. The vineyard of 2,18 hectares is ideally situated high up on the hill of Savigny-les-Beaune, facing south-east, close to the hills of Beaune 1er Crus. Soil: Marl,chalk and limestone Wine – Making Process: After a mild pressing, the wines are aged in oak casks for a period of 12 up to 14 months in our 15th century cellar. Moderate use of new oak. Features: Bright gold colour. Fragrances of lime blossom mixed with expressive aromas of yellow fleshed fruit (peach, apricot) and toasted bread on a hint of minerality. Good-balanced, precise with a lot of energy. Very pure aromatic combination and beautiful fruit expression. Delicate oak note. Long and slightly toasty finish. Pairings: Foie gras, shellfish, grilled sea scallops, grilled fish and all the regional cheeses Serving Temperature: 10°C–12°C Allergens: Contains sulphites.
