Origin

The Givry Blanc Cuvée Amélie is produced in the Givry appellation, located in the Côte Chalonnaise subregion of Burgundy, France. This area is renowned for its high-quality white and red wines, benefiting from a continental climate and limestone-rich soils.

Variety

This wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, the principal white grape variety of Burgundy, known for its elegance and capacity to express terroir.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected to ensure optimal ripeness and quality. The winemaking process includes gentle pressing followed by fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks or oak barrels, depending on the vintage. The wine is aged on fine lees to enhance complexity and mouthfeel before bottling.

Tasting notes

The Givry Blanc Cuvée Amélie offers a pale golden color with greenish reflections. On the nose, it reveals delicate aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits, and subtle hints of minerality. The palate is fresh and balanced, with crisp acidity and flavors of green apple, lemon zest, and a touch of toasted almond. The finish is elegant and lingering.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled scallops, oysters, and lobster
  • Light poultry preparations, including roasted chicken with herbs
  • Soft cheeses like Brie or Camembert
  • Fresh salads with citrus vinaigrette
  • Asian cuisine with mild spices, such as sushi or steamed fish
