Givry Blanc
The Vineyard
Located on the Côte Chalonnaise, south of Burgundy, the Givry region produces primarily red wines, but there are also parcels, exposed east to southeast, that produce whites. The Givry whites are madefrom Chardonnay grapes.The grapes are grown on calcareous soil. The subsoil is composed primarily of limestone.
Aging Process
The wine is aged exclusively in stainless steel vats.
Tasting Notes
A clear, light gold colour, early hints of lemon and honeygive way to the full Chardonnay fruit. A good aromatic persistence and harmonious taste of white peaches, combined with hazelnut, with spicy hints. This is a fresh, tasty wine.
Accompaniment
Excellent with fish (fish stew, wrapped fish, salmon on toast or tuna terrines), white meat (poultry, chicken in puff pastry) and cheeses: goat cheese, bleu cheese, Comté or Brillat-Savarin.
