Notes on the Winemaker: Morgane from Burgundy and Christian from Australia are the duo behind Domaine Dandelion near Saint-Romain in the Côte de Beaune, Burgundy. They work 2.2 hectares of Aligoté, Gamay and Pinot Noir vines by horse or hand. Organic and Biodynamic techniques are used in the vineyard and nothing is ever added to the wines. The labels are made at an old paper mill and include pressed flowers.
