ABOUT THE PRODUCER
Pierre Mayeul is the story of three old friends united by the same passion for Burgundy and with a shared goal to produce high-quality wines where each cuvee beautifully represents the individual terroir and 'climat' of each appellation. Each with a long history of Burgundian winemaking they vinify their wines in an old castle in Ladoix and age the wines in barrels in cellars that date back to the 17th Century situated in the very heart of Beaune. Matured in 50 % new oak barrels, with a slow fermentation with batonnage during ageing for 15 months.
TASTING NOTES
This wine has a yellow-gold colour. The nose is intense, and precise, with fresh honey and fine, yellow fruits. The wood is discreet, showing itself as brioche bread. The attack is round, and juicy, with citrus flavours. Thanks to its bright acidity, the mid-mouth is fresh. The finish has a fleshy texture and the persistence is long; the purity of the fruit makes it for a luscious final.
FOOD PAIRING
To be enjoyed with pan-fried scallops, filet mignon with morels, and Brie.
