Fanny Sabre Bourgogne Blanc 2023
'The Fanny Sabre Bourgogne Blanc is always a hot favourite. It is made from 100% Chardonnay sourced from her vineyards around the city of Beaune.
It is a blend from two clay and limestone parcels, both of which have beautiful terroir. One is in Meursault below the Château de Meursault and the other on the hillsides of Pommard next to Pommard terroir.
The vines are approximately 40 years old and certified by ECOCERT.
After hand sorting in the vineyard, the grapes were directly pressed and the juice settled for 48 hours prior to aging in 500 litre and 228 litre oak barrels (a proportion of which were new).
The wine was aged on lees with no interventions except small additions of sulphites after malolactic fermentation and during aging. It was racked after 11 months and then lightly filtered before bottling.
It is well rounded and balanced with a mineral finish reflective of its lovely terroir. 13% ABV.'
