How the white wines are elaborated :
Our Hautes Côtes de Beaune is produced from Chardonnay grapes and our Bourgogne Aligoté from Aligoté grapes. The two grape varieties are treated in similar ways.
After each variety has been harvested, the grapes are pressed as soon as they arrive in the winery, before being placed in vats for around 10 days to complete the alcoholic fermentation.
-For the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, the wine is drawn off and then placed in barrels for around 10 months, at which point malolactic fermentation is complete. The contents of the barrels will then be assembled in vats and the wine will wait a further 1 month before filtration and bottling.
-For the Aligoté, the wine is drawn off and then placed in vats, where it will remain for around 10 to 11 months before being filtered and bottled.

Made from the grape variety of the same appellation, we cultivate 1.32 hectares, part of which is on clay-limestone land (in the commune of Change and its hamlet of Marcheseuil) and the other on sandstone (in the commune of Paris-l'Hôpital). This dry wine nonetheless offers acidity and fruitiness.
