87 pts Jasper Morris (Inside Burgundy)
Formerly Bourgogne Chardonnay. Pale colour, a little more weight from the clay soil as you would expect from down in the plain, good acidity to create some tension on the palate, and decent length. Drink from 2026-2027. Tasted Nov 2024.
A fresh, mineral-driven white from one of Vosne-Romanes most meticulous domaines, Cuve Julie channels Anne Gross precision into a bright, versatile Burgundy built for pure drinking pleasure.
Technical Notes
Grape Variety: Chardonnay-led (Coteaux Bourguignons Blanc permits Chardonnay and Aligot)
Appellation: Coteaux Bourguignons Blanc AOC
Vinification: Native-yeast fermentation; primarily in stainless steel to preserve clarity of fruit, with a small portion raised in neutral French oak for texture
levage: Short aging on fine lees (48 months) with gentle btonnage; partial malolactic for balance
Farming: Sustainably farmed estate parcels
Terroir
Sourced from clay-limestone soils in the hills west of the Cte de Nuits, where cooler evenings and stony, chalk-inflected subsoils keep acids vivid and aromatics precise. The higher elevation of these sites extends the ripening curve, yielding a white thats both incisive and finely textured, with a distinct limestone imprint.
Tasting Notes
Lifted aromas of lemon zest, green pear, white flowers, and crushed stone lead into a crisp, medium-bodied palate. Sleek citrus and orchard fruit are laced with saline minerality and a whisper of almond from time on lees. The finish is clean, lightly chalky, and mouthwateringexcellent as an aperitif and spot-on with shellfish, simply grilled fish, goat cheese, or spring vegetables.
Serving & Drinking Window
Serve at 1012C (5054F). Enjoy now for its snap and purity, or through 2027 as the leesy nuance rounds out.
