Domaine Philippe Bouzereau: Organic White Burgundy Excellence

Hailing from the discreet yet high-quality Auxey-Duresses appellation-a true secret of the Côte de Beaune-this Organic Chardonnay from 'Les Boutonnières' offers a refined, mineral-driven experience. The Domaine’s commitment to organic farming ensures a pure and unadulterated expression of this prime terroir.

Sommelier's Notes

The wine benefits from 12 months in 228-litre French oak barrels, a process that lends structure and a delightful creamy mouthfeel without overpowering the delicate fruit.

• Appearance: Bright, pale straw with golden reflections.
• Nose: Opens with classic Burgundy notes of fresh almond and green apple, evolving into a subtle, flinty smoke and a hint of buttered toast.
• Palate: Juicy and lively on the entry, it builds to a fuller, savoury mid-palate, retaining a beautiful line of acidity and a persistent, charming finish. This is a white wine built to age gracefully.

Food Pairing: Classic British Dishes

This wine's balance of richness and acidity makes it incredibly versatile, especially with classic creamy fish dishes. Serve slightly cool (12-14°C).

• Perfect Match: Smoked Haddock Risotto or a traditional Fish Pie with a cheesy mash top.
• Cheese Pairing: Young, dry-textured goat’s cheese or mature Gruyère-style cheese.
