WINE DESCRIPTION
Domaine Alice et Olivier de Moor Bourgogne Chitry is a distinguished white wine hailing from the Burgundy region in France. Crafted from the Chardonnay grape variety, this wine is a testament to the unique terroir of the Kimméridgien soil, characterized by stony and calcareous layers rich in marine fossils. With a vineyard extension of 1.3 hectares, the Domaine De Moor Bourgogne Chitry offers a distinctive expression of the region. The wine's flavor profile is marked by the Kimméridgien soil, presenting a buttery richness, refreshing acidity, and hints of iodine reminiscent of the marine influence. The winemaking process involves pressing, spontaneous fermentation in pièces (traditional Burgundian barrels), and aging for 12 months in the same barrels, resulting in a wine that beautifully reflects the character of its terroir.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Alice et Olivier de Moor Bourgogne Chitry is a delightful white wine from the Burgundy region of France.On the nose, it offers a bouquet of citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, along with subtle floral notes and a touch of minerality.
On the palate, this wine is crisp and refreshing, with a medium body and balanced acidity. The citrus flavors continue to shine, accompanied by hints of green apple and a zesty finish. The Chitry showcases a remarkable purity of fruit, reflecting the terroir of the region.
