Origin

The Hautes Côtes de Beaune is a subregion of Burgundy located in the western hills above the Côte de Beaune. This wine is produced in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellation, France.

Variety

This white wine is made exclusively from Chardonnay grapes, the principal white grape variety of Burgundy.

Production

The grapes are hand-harvested and carefully selected. Vinification typically involves gentle pressing followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks or oak barrels to preserve freshness and develop complexity. Aging may occur in oak barrels to add subtle vanilla and toast notes while maintaining the wine’s vibrant acidity.

Tasting notes

  • Appearance: Pale golden yellow color with greenish reflections.
  • Aroma: Fresh and elegant bouquet featuring citrus fruits, white flowers, and hints of minerality.
  • Palate: Crisp and well-balanced with flavors of green apple, lemon zest, and subtle notes of almond and flint. The finish is clean and refreshing.

Food pairings

  • Seafood dishes such as grilled scallops, oysters, and white fish.
  • Light poultry preparations including roast chicken and turkey.
  • Soft cheeses like Brie, Camembert, and goat cheese.
  • Vegetable-based dishes and salads with vinaigrette dressings.
