Description
This exceptional white Burgundy is a beautiful expression of Chardonnay, delivering a balance of zesty citrus, white peach, and floral aromas with a hint of vanilla, hazelnut, and marshmallow from careful oak aging. The palate is fresh and mineral-driven, with a silky texture, bright acidity, and a long saline finish that reflects the limestone-rich terroir of Givry. Aged for 12 months on lees in old French oak barrels, this wine has both elegance and depth, making it a must-try for fans of refined, food-friendly Burgundy whites. Perfectly paired with seafood, creamy pasta, or a charcuterie board.
Domaine Desvignes is a historic Burgundian estate, founded in 1870 and now led by fifth-generation winemaker Gautier Desvignes, who trained in Oregon before returning to Givry. His focus on sustainability, minimal intervention winemaking, and old-vine vineyards has positioned the estate among the most exciting producers in Givry. The north-east-facing "En Chenèves" vineyard was once classified as cool-climate, but climate shifts have transformed it into a site producing complex, beautifully balanced wines. A true gem from the Côte Chalonnaise, this wine offers incredible value for Burgundy lovers.
