Description
Wine style
Jean Gagnerot's Bourgogne Chardonnay is a still white wine that clearly expresses the character of its regional appellation. Produced by Jean Gagnerot from Chardonnay grapes, it reveals a fragrant aromatic profile in which notes of white flowers and ripe fruit stand out. On the palate, the defined and persistent structure combines with a soft and finely creamy texture, balanced by a lively citrus acidity. The marked mineral imprint accompanies the sip, offering a fresh and crisp drinkability that enhances the natural vocation of this grape variety, aged in stainless steel.
Provenance
This wine originates in Meursault, in the famous Côte-d’Or district, the beating heart of winemaking in Burgundy. The deep link with the terroir enhances the natural qualities of the grape variety. The interaction with the characteristic clay and limestone soils gives the Chardonnay a precise character, resulting in a deep mineral expression. The result is a white wine with a bright and balanced profile, capable of rigorously conveying the strong viticultural vocation of one of the most prestigious areas of the French oenological landscape.
Production method
The production process begins with a gentle pressing of the destemmed grapes, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature to preserve the fruity aromas. Ageing on fine lees takes place for several months in stainless steel tanks, consolidating the wine's structure without any time in oak. Subsequent resting in the cellar guarantees a long and clean finish, with an estimated potential for evolution over time of between five and ten years. To fully appreciate the nuances of flavour, a serving temperature of 10-12 °C is recommended.
