2017 Jean-Noel Gagnard Caroline Lestime Bourgogne Blanc Sous Eguisons

Producer: Jean-Noel Gagnard 
Region: Cote de Beaune, Burgundy, France  
Varietal: Chardonnay  
Year: 2017 

Winemaker Notes: 

"The name "Sous Éguison" refers to the cliff above the vineyard. The cliff offers protection from the North winds, which is a significant advantage given how harsh the climate is and how bitter the Spring frosts are at this altitude. The natural growth cycle of the vines is also slower and the grapes mature a full week later than at lower levels.

The vineyard was planted by Caroline Lestime on a terroir which gives the Chardonnay varietal great power. This cuvee expresses the tradition and experience of great quality." 

Alcohol: 12.5%
