Over time, the domain arm (Chanson Père \u0026amp; Fils) acquired parcels in the Côte de Beaune and Mâconnais to produce white Burgundies. The philosophy emphasizes terroir, precision viticulture, sustainable practices (Chanson has reduced herbicide use since 2015), and balancing tradition with modern cellar techniques to express purity and freshness in their whites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer and Wine Maker\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eProduced by Chanson Père \u0026amp; Fils, the winemaking team sources Chardonnay from estate or contracted vineyards in Meursault. They oversee canopy management, yield control, picking decisions, sorting, fermentation and aging. Their approach is minimalist: gentle extraction, selective oak, lees stirring, and minimal malolactic intervention to preserve aromatic clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVineyards and Micro Climate\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe grapes come from Meursault, Côte de Beaune, on well-drained limestone and clay soils typical of that appellation. The exposure is favorable (southeast to south), capturing morning sunlight yet avoiding harsh mid-day heat. Burgundy’s continental climate—with warm days and cool nights—allows slow phenolic maturation and retention of acidity, especially essential in white Burgundies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eVinification \u0026amp; Aging Methods\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eUpon harvest, grapes are lightly pressed, cold settled, and fermented temperature-controlled in a combination of French oak (new and used) and stainless steel barrels. The wine is aged 10–12 months on the fine lees, with occasional bâtonnage to enhance texture. Malolactic fermentation may be partial to avoid loss of freshness. The oak proportion is moderate to preserve fruit purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p3\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eTasting notes\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003ePale gold color.
