White Burgundy Tasting Kit

A ripe yet fresh balance of flavours and aromas and a fresh and fruity nose in the apple and melon spectrum leads to a creamy palate with a seam of underlying freshness. About 20% comes from the cooler Hautes Côtes vineyards for freshness, with the rest mainly from vineyards classified as Bourgogne situated on the land below Meursault and Puligny. About 65% is barrel-fermented and kept on its yeast lees for richness, while 35% is tank fermented to capture the freshness.

A fresh, taut and lemony chardonnay with good grip. Fermented and matured half in foudres of about 2,000 litres and half in 500-litre barrels. Drink from 2024 to 2026. 14%

Fine-flavoured unoaked Saint-Véran from a cool spot in Chasselas. Firm and tense with a fresh, taut palate. Kept on its lees in tank for 12 months. It is unoaked to preserve its minerality intact.

This high cool site above 400m produces a bright and refreshing wine with a lovely palate mingling apples with a hint of melon. It's fermented and matured in 500-litre barrels to moderate the oak flavour.

Assembled from three vineyards, Les Plantenets near Aluze, La Chaume and En Varot, this is quite fresh and mineral, pretty and light on its feet. Barrel fermented and matured. Drink from 2025 to 2028. 12.5%

Bright, fresh and mineral Chablis made for us by Jean-Marc Brocard. Entirely fermented in stainless steel to preserve purity of fruit, this is kept on its yeast lees in tank for six months to fill out the mid-palate. Scented with white blossom, this has flavours of green apple and lemon, and a seashell minerality.
