Origin

The Coteaux Bourguignons appellation area merges with that of the Burgundy appellation. It covers around 300 hectares and 384 communes, stretching from the Chablis and Auxerrois regions in the north to the Mâconnais region in the south, via the Côte d'Or and Côte Chalonnaise.

The Coteaux Bourguignons appellation exists for red, white and rosé wines. The special feature of this appellation is that it can be produced from a blend of grape varieties. Our grapes come from the Côte de la Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise and the north of the Mâconnais.

- Terroirs made up of clay and marl with hints of granite.
- Hilly terrain.

Vinification and maturing

The grapes are first sorted and then pressed when they arrive at the winery. The musts are settled and then vinified in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats using selected yeasts. The vinification temperature is between 16° and 18°C, allowing optimum extraction of the wine's aromatic potential. The wine is then matured in stainless steel vats on its lees for 6 to 8 months. Malolactic fermentation is complete, making the wine more supple.
