Winemaking: Organic Chardonnay grapes from vines that are over 50 years old and grown on limestone soils were harvested by hand. Fermented with indigenous yeast in old oak barrels where the wine then aged on the lees for 1 year. Rested for a further year in enamel vessels. No fining, filtration or added sulphur.

This Wine: Natural white Burgundy with a beautiful complexity of green fruit, citrus, honey and floral notes that are uninterrupted by oak flavours. Clean, mineral finish. Less than 7000 bottles produced.

Notes on the Winemaker: Clos des Vignes du Maynes was founded in 1954 on land that had been used by monks for viticulture since the year 910. Pierre and Jeanne Guillot immediately worked organically in the vineyard and without use of sulphur in the cellar. Their son Julien joined the project in 1998 and they transitioned to biodynamic farming. Now they work around 8 hectares on clay-limestone soils where they cultivate Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Gamay grapes to produce Burgundian wines of real purity that focus on fruit and not flavours of wood!
