Maison Chanzy Bourgogne Chardonnay Les Fortunés
Wine Description
With full control of production from vineyard to bottling, Chanzy’s impressive range spans 40 appellations in 8 villages of Côte Chalonnaise and Côte d’Or. The vineyards are farmed sustainably.
Bourgogne Chardonnay is from the bottom of the slopes of La Fortune in Bouzeron with a southeastern exposure and from a vineyard located few miles away on higher altitude in Nantoux village (next to Bouzeron). Grown in typical clay and limestone soils with an average vine age of 35 years, Bourgogne Chardonnay is fermented and then aged in used 350-liter barrels for ten months before bottling.
