Tasting Notes
In the glass, the 2023 Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits Blanc shows a pale lemon color with hints of green at the rim, reflecting its youth and vibrancy. The nose is clean and expressive, marked by citrus zest, crunchy green apple and white peach, layered with floral notes of acacia and hints of chalk, wet stone and a light touch of hazelnut. On the palate, this is crisp and finely etched, with a lively acidity that frames flavors of lemon, pear, orchard fruits and subtle spice. A delicate creaminess from lees contact rounds the mid-palate without weighing it down, leading to a long, saline finish that underlines the cool-climate origin. Enjoyable in its youth for its freshness and lift, it will gain a bit more texture and complexity over the next 3–5 years if cellared well.

Production
Sourced from elevated parcels in the Hautes-Côtes de Nuits, this white Burgundy benefits from cooler nights and rocky, limestone-rich soils that naturally emphasize tension and minerality. Grapes are typically harvested by hand to preserve fruit integrity and allow for careful selection in the vineyard and at the winery. Vinification focuses on a gentle pressing, followed by fermentation in a combination of stainless steel and oak, with a judicious use of barrels to add nuance rather than overt oak character. Aging on fine lees enhances texture and complexity while preserving the bright, saline drive that is characteristic of this terroir.

Food & Serving
This wine is a versatile partner at the table, pairing beautifully with seafood such as grilled prawns, seared scallops, oysters, and simply prepared white fish, as well as roast chicken, herb-crusted pork, creamy risottos and fresh goat’s cheese. Serve well-chilled but not icy, ideally around 10–12°C (50–54°F), to allow the aromatics and texture to fully express themselves. Decanting is not essential, but a brief 15–20 minutes in a carafe before serving can help open up the nose and soften the edges for maximum enjoyment.
