Description

Barrel fermented and aged in 50% new oak, this is a wine that will stand up to many, far more expensive wines from further north in the Côte d'Or. The nose evokes vanilla, baked apples and some tropical notes. The balance between rich fruit and bright acidity is superb.

Manciat-Poncet

The Domaine is comprised of two estates. The estate in Charnay is home to the Mâcon vineyards and came from Claude’s side of the family (Manciat). The estate in Vergisson, home to the Pouilly-Fuissé vineyards, came from Claude’s wife’s side of the family (Poncet). Together they manage 12 hectares of vines, all aged between 40 and 60 years. At Manciat-Poncet they believed that great wine is born in the vineyards and they work hard in their immaculately kept vineyards.

Burgundy

Burgundy, located in eastern France, is one of the world’s most renowned wine regions, celebrated for its exceptional Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The region is divided into five main wine-producing areas: Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise, and Mâconnais. Burgundy’s complex terroir, characterised by diverse soils, microclimates, and slope orientations, plays a critical role in the distinctive characteristics of its wines. The region's classification system includes Grand Cru, Premier Cru, Village, and Regional appellations, reflecting the hierarchy of quality and location. Burgundy’s vineyards, many with centuries-old histories, produce wines that are revered for their elegance, depth, and expression of terroir. Key towns include Beaune, the region’s wine capital, and Dijon, known for its historical ties to the Dukes of Burgundy. Burgundy’s rich winemaking heritage, combined with its diverse range of wines, makes it a top destination for wine enthusiasts worldwide.
