2020 Domaine Simon Bize et Fils Les Champlains Bourgogne Blanc, Burgundy, France
$59.99
Vineyard planted in 1993 and 1996 on an eastern-facing slope.
The Bourgogne Blanc Les Champlains always displays the more richness, roundness, and fullness of the two Bourgogne Blancs. The soil is very rocky, and there are several quarries nearby. Fermentation is in barrel. There is usually no sulfur added at the press unless the vintage requires it. The wine ages for six months in barrel then three months in tank. The final blend usually contains around 5% Pinot Beurot (Pinot Gris) which is partly why Les Champlains tends to be rounder than Les Perrieres.
