Our opinion on the vintage
At first, this wine reveals a rich nose opening with buttery and brioche aromas, with a hint of honey and white-fleshed fruit. On the palate, it's an explosion of sensations: the creamy texture envelops the delicate minerality, offering a surprising harmony. The finish is persistent, leaving an impression of richness and elegance akin to the great wines of Chassagne-Montrachet. This Chardonnay seduces with its generosity and precise structure, making it approachable now while promising excellent aging potential.

Chandon de Briailles
Bourgogne | France
A historic estate in Savigny-lès-Beaune, Chandon de Briailles cultivates its vines biodynamically and crafts wines in a remarkably pure style. The Pinot Noirs benefit from gentle extraction and judicious aging, resulting in delicate red fruit, a tight structure, and a consistent finish. The white wines display restrained tension and a precise texture. In short: exacting standards and finesse. The estate remains a benchmark of the Côte de Beaune.
