Domaine François Mikulski - Bourgogne Côte d'Or - White - 2023

Wine:

From 1.5 hectares of organically farmed vines just outside Meursault, the 2023 Bourgogne Côte d’Or Blanc confidently borrows all the hallmarks of its illustrious neighbor — depth, complexity, and length. Aged in barrels with a gentle touch, it shows a supple, fruit-and-spice-driven profile layered with hints of citrus and subtle exotic notes. The finish is bright and mouthwatering, marked by a vibrant saline lift that makes it a perfect match for crispy calamari, seared scallops with curry, or simply grilled fish.

Vinification:

Area: 1.5 hectares. Subsoil composed of fine river alluvium, common in the lower part of the hillside. Aged in oak barrels for around 10 months, then racked and transferred to vats for 2 months before bottling.
The vines are grown using non-certified organic methods.

Temperature:

Serve between 10 and 12°C.

Food and wine pairing:

Aperitif with Comté cheese gougères, free-range chicken supreme, lemon confit cream, sole meunière, lemon butter, cod fillet, cauliflower purée, citrus oil, grey shrimp or langoustines, yuzu mayonnaise.

Cellar aging:

From now until 2031, and beyond for enthusiasts
