Aline Beauné Bourgogne Blanc 2021
2018 marked Aline Beauné's debut as a solo winemaker, though she brings 15 years of experience as head winemaker at Château de la Crée in Santenay. Seizing the opportunity when the Buxy co-operative’s lease on 5 hectares of her family’s 12-hectare Montagny vineyard ended, she began crafting her own wines.
Located in Saint-Vallerin, her 5 hectares are dedicated to 12.5% Aligoté, 25% Bourgogne Blanc, 50% Montagny Villages, and 12.5% Montagny 1er Cru Chazelle. With her expertise, a strong foundation of quality vines, and a passion for innovation, Aline is poised to make a lasting mark in the Côte Chalonnaise.
The Burgundy wine region, located in eastern France, is one of the most celebrated wine-producing areas in the world, known for its exceptional terroir-driven wines. It is divided into five key subregions: Chablis, Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, Côte Chalonnaise, and Mâconnais. Burgundy is renowned for its Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, producing some of the finest red and white wines globally. The region’s intricate patchwork of vineyards, known as climats, reflects centuries of viticultural heritage, with many classified as Premier Cru or Grand Cru. Burgundy’s wines are prized for their elegance, complexity, and expression of their unique terroirs.
