DESCRIPTION
A stunning pale color, this Chardonnay is full of delicate aromas like exotic fruit and fresh bread, yet reveals subtle hints of menthol. This vintage finishes off with some light notes of eucalyptus. The Domaine Beranger is a very fine and elegant wine to drink. This wine pairs nicely with risotto, oysters, gambas, quenelles or comté cheese.
REGION
Mâconnais
France
The Mâconnais, the "wine cellar of Burgundy", covers a quarter of the Burgundy vineyard. Its clay and limestone soils stretch 50 km long and 15 km wide. Its contrasting landscapes alternate between gentle valleys and steep cliffs. Its diversity of terroirs gives white wines rich in aromas, with good ageing potential. The vines of this sunny region are planted up to 400 metres above sea level, on the best exposed gentle slopes. The kingdom of Chardonnay (80% of plantings), it brings together five of the most prestigious "village" white wine appellations: Pouilly Fuissé, Pouilly Vinzelles, Pouilly Loché, Saint Véran and Viré Clessé. For red wines (15% of total production), Gamay far outweighs Pinot Noir.
