Elegant, round and rich in substance. This wine sort from Bourgogne is considered to produce some of the finest wines in the world. At Balisiers, the chardonnay ferments in new oak barriques, which gives it a particular “fumé” fragrance. It is raised at very low yield. Flavours of passion fruit, generous and round; of a very deep yellow colour. This wine goes well with mushroom (morels, boletus, chanterelles) fricassee, cooked or smoked salmon and all lake fish. It is also an ideal aperitif wine. Don’t drink before two years of ageing from harvest time on.

“... the best ... aged in barriques but very discretely vanilla-flavoured ... a lovely genuine chardonnay with a beautifully fragranced freshness.” 24h, 3/2000
