Tasting Notes

Biodynamic. Single vineyard Chardonnay. Gueules de Loup is arguably the most picturesque vineyard of the Côtes d’Auxerre and is named after the beautiful flowers (snapdragons) that flourish in its soils. This one-hectare site faces south/southeast, and the soils are almost pure limestone Portlandian downwash, which lends this cuvée excellent mineral backbone (although it also lacks nothing for opulence). The vines are over 40 years old, and maturation takes place in barrels on lees. The Goisots believe this terroir to be similar to the 1er Cru Vaillons in Chablis, but there is more ‘white Burgundy’ personality here than we have ever seen from Vaillons.
