Tasting note:

Beautiful golden color with light green glints. Intense and concentrated nose with some delicate notes of yellow flesh fruits on an oak background lightly toasted. Nice richness in the mouth and good length in the palate with an impressive dry extract on a vibrant final. Some light lemon notes at the end.
 

Winery introduction:

South of the Côte de Beaune, Chassagne-Montrachet is famous for its prestigious white wines, for which its mainly brown limestone soil is best suited. The Premiers Crus whites are spread over 70 ha of vineyards, divided into 22 different areas producing about 3,300 hl a year. “Les Chenevottes” is in an ideal location, next to Montrachet Grand Cru

Maison Champy is the oldest wine company in Burgundy from 1720. The winery, which has been declared a historic monument by UNESCO, was designed by the famed architect, Gustave Eiffel. It was at Maison Champy where renowned scientist, Louis Pasteur set up a laboratory and developed the pasteurization method. 

Maison Champy owns 52 acres of vineyards, including holdings in Corton Charlemagne Grand Cru, Clos de Bully in Pernand-Vergelessess, and Beaune 1er Cru Aux Cras. These prized vineyards, among others owned by Champy, are farmed organically in order to showcase the true character of the terroir in the wines.

Champy has worked for many years with the goal of crafting the best possible expression of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from each unique terroir.
