Drink it now or cellar for up to 10 years. No need to decant, but best to open it half an hour before service. Located in Santenay, in the heart of the Côte-d'Or, Burgundy, Domaine Jessiaume has a long winemaking tradition, having been founded in 1850, and purchased by François Le Bigot, current owner in 2020. The company, which has passed to organic certification, brings forward a philosophy of minimal intervention, favoring work by gravity, and the minimal use of sulfites. The Chardonnay grapes come from one of the historic plots of the Domaine: 0.77 hectares of vineyard with an average age of 40 years located in the Les Gravières cru. Here the soil rich in gravel and limestone of the Combe de Saint-Aubin and the south-east exposure guarantee the production of fresh and fruity wines characterized by a strong mineral vein. Santenay Premier Cru Les Gravieres Blanc has a light and clear color with lemon-yellow tones. The nose reveals elegant fruity aromas of apple, pear, and yellow plum, followed by hints of pastry and mineral notes. On the palate, it is medium-bodied and has a delicious juiciness. It is fresh, elegant, and round. The finish is long and persistent and recalls evident chalky notes. Try it with trout or veal filet.
