| Description: | Tasting Notes\r\nBeautiful golden color.\u00a0The nose is powerful with aromas of white flowers, supported by a slightly woody note.\u00a0The palate is balanced with toasted notes providing structure and good length.\r\nThe grapes are harvested by hand and then directly pressed using a pneumatic press.\u00a0All alcoholic fermentation is carried out in French oak barrels.\u00a0Aging lasts about 13 months with some stirring.\u00a0The proportion of new barrels is around 40%.\r\nPuligny-Montrachet is a world famous terroir where Chardonnay expresses all its complexity.\u00a0The grapes come from plots located near the village.\u00a0Full east exposure.\r\nAbout Jaffelin\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nFrom the \u201cMaison du Chapitre\u201d to the Maison Jaffelin, a long history of wine\u2026\r\n\r\n\r\nThe history of Jaffelin merges with that of the Collegiate Church of Notre Dame de Beaune. Over the centuries, our cellars have housed the wines of the Collegiate Church and of the princes of the Church. The Chapter cellars changed owners in 1816, when the Jaffelin brothers set up their trading house. Today, as eight centuries ago, our wines rest in the monastic tranquility of the Chapter cellars.\r\n\r\nJaffelin, the smallest of the great Burgundy Houses as it likes to say, wrote a new chapter in its history in 2004 with a fully restored vat room equipped with the most precise tools.\u00a0It is in this magical place located in the historic center of Beaune that Marinette Garnier, our oenologist-winemaker, produces \u201chand-sewn\u201d cuv\u00e9es.\u00a0Since this period, Jaffelin has never ceased to sublimate the best Burgundy terroirs through a complete collection of great wines, awarded in prestigious competitions and appreciated by connoisseurs around the world. |
