Technical Details
Estate
One of the great historic producers of France, founded in 1750 and purchased by the Champagne Bollinger family in 1999, Chanson today is one of only six producers in Burgundy still remaining from the 18th century and earlier. Chanson has been meticulously managed since 1999 to become one of Burgundy's top estates. Domaine Chanson’s extensive holdings, and the extraordinary rigor and precision of their approach in the vineyards and cellars, result in wines of individuality and quality.
Food pairing
Pate, fish, charcuterie, and many goat cheeses.
Tasting notes
Pale gold colour. Delicate aromas of fern mixed with citrus fruit and fresh honey on a hint of minerality. Well-structured with a well-integrated acidity. Refreshing aftertaste with zesty notes.
Vintage
After a cold and rainy winter and a frost episode in April, the warm and dry weather in spring was perfect for the flowering. July and August were more demanding but the weather improved early September A warm Indian summer settled down and enabled a perfect maturation of the grapes. The harvest took place mid September under a bright sunshine. The white wines develop very pure zesty aromas mixed with floral fragrances. The white wines are tense with citrus fruit aromas and a well-shaped acidity.
