Chardonnay - Meursault Vieilles Vignes, Domaine Christophe Bellang
Meursault Vieilles Vignes Domaine Christophe Bellang
In het glas goudgeel van kleur met aroma's van geel fruit en iets toast en vanille van een periode rijping in Frans eiken waarvan 20-25% nieuwe vaten. In de mond is deze wijn typerend voor de Mersault-appellatie: rond, licht boterachtig, rijk van smaak en met een uitzonderlijke lengte.

A family estate for several generations (the Meursault estate's family tree goes back to 1789).
In 1974 Christian took over his parents' estate, with vines mainly in Meursault, and some of his father-in-law's vines in Savigny lès Beaune. His son, Christophe, joined him in 1995. Together they expanded the estate with plots in Meursault, Savigny lès Beaune, Chorey lès Beaune and Beaune. Today Christophe manages the estate, now totalling 9 hectares.
Reds and wines are almost evenly balanced. The vines are some 30 years old on average.
We think it important for our wines to respect their terroir and year.
This begins by a lot of work in the vineyard, to harvest healthy, ripe grapes.
The vines are worked combining the greatest possible respect for traditions with environmentally-friendly disease control.
Our wines are delicate, precise wines and as natural as they can be.
Vinification and ageing are adapted to each vintage.
