The estate and the wine
Wine Of an exquisite simplicity, the 2021 white Couvent des Jacobins Burgundy wine offers a complete representation of Burgundy as it is made from a blend of wines selected from all over the Côte d'Or. This mosaic of terroirs forms a tasty Chardonnay, carried by beautiful flavors of fruit and great freshness, but also a good structure granted by the aging in barrels. A classic!
Vinification Hand harvested, fermented in barrels, 1/3 of which are new, aged on fine lees for 8 to 10 months, partly in barrels (from the estate's cooperage) and the rest in stainless steel tanks.
