Domaine du Cellier aux Moines : Santenay 1er cru "Beauregard" 2022

The richness and elegance of a Burgundy Chardonnay

The estate

Founded in 1130 by the Cistercian monks of the Abbey of La Ferté in Givry, the Domaine du Cellier aux Moines is one of the oldest wine estates in Burgundy. In 2004, it was taken over by Philippe and Catherine Pascal and their three children, all driven by the same objective: to bring the estate back to life. Listed as a Monument Historique, the Cellier aux Moines has been restored over the last ten years with passion and the greatest respect for tradition. This veritable jewel of Burgundy winegrowing now extends over more than 10 hectares, bringing together exceptional Premier Crus from Givry to Puligny-Montrachet.

The vineyard

This Santenay Premier Cru Beauregard 2022 stems from a 26-acre plot facing east on a gentle slope. The vines were planted in 1993 and thrive on slightly stony clay-limestone soil. The vineyard has been biodynamic since 2017.
