This little village dominating the Côte de Beaune produces white wines with a pale yellow colour and green reflexes. It is marked by notes of white flowers and yellow fruits such as mirabelles and finishes off with elegant minerality. To be enjoyed young alongside asparagus or clam platters (cockles, mussels). It is also a perfect accompaniment to aromatic Mediterranean dishes. |
