Elaboration

Henri d'Andeli's map, drawn up in 1224 under Philippe Auguste, lists Flavigny as a stronghold of wine-growing region in France. It is in this setting steeped in history, at the foot of the oppidum of Alesia, in the heart of the Côte d'Or, that the wines of the Auxois are reborn. The vines, now over 20 years old, fully express this forgotten terroir. The vines and soils are protected by a viticulture that respects the natural environment of the Auxois.

Taster´s notes

A very lively white wine with a nice yellow colour. On the nose, it is fruity and fresh, with notes of yellow apple, pineapple and vainilla. On the palate, it is round and well-balanced. A very easy to drink white wine. We recommend pairing the wine with seafood and white meats. We suggest a serving temperature of 10ºC

Customer Reviews

The Winery

The vineyard has been established in 1994 and covers 14 hectares. The rebirth of the vineyard in Flavigny is the initiative of Gérard Vermeere, a former surgeon in Dijon. He replanted the vines in the magical area of Auxois, an area full of winemaking history since the 13th century. When Mr Vermeere passed away in 2002, Ida Nel took over the reins of the project and gave a new impetus to the estate with a clear objective: to do everything possible to regain the quality of the wines of Flavigny-Alésia, which were once renowned.
