Burgundy Cote de Beaune
$22.00
A twenty-five-kilometre run of east-facing slope below the Hautes-Côtes, where the Côte d'Or escarpment turns south of Beaune. The vineyards are not one big estate; they are climats, small named parcels sometimes the width of a footpath, that the Cistercians began mapping in the twelfth century and UNESCO recognised in 2015. Pinot Noir on the upper slopes around Pommard and Volnay, Chardonnay on the limestone shelf at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet. In late September the rows go gold for about a week. The polychrome roof of the Hospices de Beaune is visible across the plain.
Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
