With such low yields caused by the devastating frost of April 2021, Domaine de Villaine made the wise decision to blend all of its red Burgundy plots into a single vintage. The typical characteristics of “La Digoine” and “La Fortune” are combined with the juicy flavors of generic Burgundy. The result of this 2021 vintage is an exceptional equation of quantity and quality, all at an impressive value for money.
Domaine de Villaine was established in 1971 by Aubert and Pamela de Villaine, also co-directors of Romanée‑Conti . Located in Bouzeron, Côte Chalonnaise, it became a benchmark for golden Aligoté, earning its own Bouzeron AOC in 1998 . The estate cultivates multiple grape varieties (Aligoté, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir), choosing sites by soil: Aligoté on limestone slopes, Chardonnay on clay . Winemaking emphasizes large oak vats with lees aging and minimal intervention . The result: terroir-driven wines that are vibrant, fresh and salivating, beautifully expressing the water and minerality of their ancient marine soils .
Les Beaux Monts lies to the north-west of the village of Vosne-Romanée, on a steep slope (10% gradient) at the exit of the Combe Brûlée. The altitude of the plot varies from 277 to 289 meters. The plot faces east-south-east. The reddish-brown soil is characterized by a large quantity of light-colored limestone and chailles (silica nodules).
At the heart of the Clos des Mouches Chanson appellation, it owns a plot of 4.3 hectares. The location is ideal on south-east facing hillsides, bordering the Premiers Crus of Pommard. 2.5 hectares are planted with Pinot Noir on a limestone subsoil enhanced by a loamy clay soil.
The Chambertin Grand Cru from Domaine TRAPET is 1.90 hectares spread over 3 plots, the oldest of which was planted in 1919. This Chambertin wine opens up an infinite, unlimited, elusive universe, one of the richest there is!
The Cuvée Sainte Anne owes its name to the Holy Protector of the Village of Merfy where the Maison Chartogne-Taillet is based. This Champagne is the association of all the plots of Maison Chartogne-Taillet on the Merfy terroir and the three main Champagne grape varieties: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
The objective of the Cuvée l'Esquisse is to bring together the new and young plots of Champagne Moussé. Designed to be fruit-oriented and enjoyed young, this cuvée has a high proportion of sizes which gives it great drinkability.
Grand Cellier is a daring Champagne, all in elegance with a blend of 70% Chardonnay and 30% Pinot Noir from Premier Cru vines in the village of Rilly-la-Montagne. The wines spend 10 months aging in oak barrels to bring power and complexity.
Domaine De Villaine Bouzeron 2021 comes from Aligoté vines located on the best slopes of the Appellation. Since settling in Bouzeron in 1973, the estate has selected the very old Bouzeron vines of so-called "golden" varieties which give smaller yields and finer aromatic wines.
Grande Réserve is an intense Champagne full of character with a blend of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay from Premier Cru vines in the village of Rilly-la-Montagne. The wines spend 10 months aging in oak barrels to bring power and complexity.
