Burgundy Hautes-Côtes de Nuits white - Les Plançons 2022
This wine is made from the white Chardonnay grape variety grown in the Hautes Côtes-de-Nuits appellation zone, on clay-limestone and marl soils.
Vineyard
Certified in Organic Agriculture, this wine is made from the white Chardonnay grape variety. The Hautes-Côtes de Nuits vineyard is located at an altitude of between 300 and 400m and occupies the slopes incising the Jurassic limestone plateaus to the west of “La Côte”. The substrate is identical to that of the Coast, but the surface formations are very thin, if not non-existent. Clay-limestone soils result from the alteration of limestone and marl in the substrate. Average age of the vines: 25-35 years.
Winemaking
After pressing, the must is cooled for clarification. The alcoholic fermentation takes place partly in vats and partly in oak barrels, under temperature control. The wine is then aged for 8 months in oak barrels (50% new barrels). During this aging, malolactic fermentation takes place.
Tasting & Pairings
This fruity wine with notes of vanilla, round and well balanced will go perfectly with fish and seafood as well as goat cheeses.
Conservation
5 to 7 years old.
