Description

The richness and elegance of a Burgundy white wine

The estate

The story of the beautiful Vincent Girardin house began in 1980. At the age of 19, Vincent Girardin joined the family profession of winemaking that it had been doing since the 17th century. He began his activities with the two hectares of vines he inherited from his parents. A passionate winegrower at heart, Vincent Girardin quickly made a name for himself among the great names of Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. Founded in 1992, Vincent Girardin has since become one of the finest references in the appellation. Since 2000, the talented Eric Germain has been following in Vincent Girardin's footsteps, bringing out with passion the exceptional terroirs of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet.

The vineyard

This Premier Cru comes from plots in the heart of the "Les Combettes" area, between the villages of Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, in the south of the Côte de Beaune. The 70-year-old vines are planted on poor, stony clay-limestone soil.

Winemaking and ageing

After manual harvesting, the grapes are fully pressed and the juice extracted at low pressure using a pneumatic press. Static settling takes place over 24 to 36 hours at low temperature. Alcoholic fermentation and ageing take place in barrels containing 25% new wood. The wine is aged for 16 months.

Grape variety

Chardonnay (100%)
