TASTING NOTES: This is completely different with its intense soil tones, green fruit and oyster shell notes, all of which can also be found on the relatively powerful, intense and stony middle weight flavors that coat the palate with dry extract on the austere lemon-suffused and tension-filled finish.

BRAND NAME: François de Nicolay

François de Nicolay, child of the ‘70 vintage and head of Domaine Chandon de Briailles, today embodies the renewal of this historic estate, straddling the line between modernity and respect for tradition. A family property since 1834, located four kilometres north of Beaune, the estate extends over 13.7 ha in the communes of Savigny-Lès-Beaune, Pernand-Vergelesses and Aloxe-Corton. Vinified and aged in the purest Burgundian tradition, their wines express themselves with great freshness and reflect their terroir and their climat of origin.
