This wine is dry, lively and fresh, very appealing on the nose showing hints of exotic fruits and white flowers. This white Beaujolais is at the same time voluptuous and very fresh. I

This Beaujolais blanc is pressed straight after the harvest, it rests overnight for cold settling (debourbage) in stainless steel vats. It then undergoes fermentation on lies, in order to get the purest expression of Chardonnay grown in Beaujolais.

This 10 hectares walled parcell near a Castle of medieval origin, was the land of the Lords of Loyse until 1643, when Chartreux monks took over and cultivated chardonnay there until 1793 (French Revolution). Chardonnay vines grown here, further down slopes of Chénas appellation and only a few kilometers away from Pouilly-Fuissé, benefit from a very different terroir from the rest of Southern Burgundy : alluvial soil lying on a granite bedrock, giving its wines a fruiter character.
