The Girardin family have now entered their 13th generation of winemaking since Benoit took over from his father in 2011. Since his time at the helm, the wines have become more focussed and refined. The family’s vineyard holdings in Burgundy are now roughly 21 hectares across some spectacular sites. Their wines offer incredibly value Burgundy. 

With such a tiny release of this wine, Benoit has created a Chardonnay that honestly represents their vineyard in Chassagne-Montrachet with restraint and poise. A wine true to its vintage, ripe stone fruits and fresh florals that is balance by a silky palate and a lingering feeling for wanting more.
