Description

 Domaine Denis Carré is a new domaine by Burgundian standards. Denis Carré founded his estate in 1975 when he rented a parcel of vines and produced three barrels of Passetoutgrain. Each year thereafter, Denis worked to add vineyards and produce more wine, until he was able to build a winery and establish 13 hectares of his own vines spread over eight appellations. Today, his children, Marial and Gaetane, are running the domaine, looked over by Denis and his wife Bernadette. They produce 12 different wines from sustainably farmed vines, all of which are hand harvested. 

 

The Hautes-Côtes de Beaune Chardonnay really punches above its weight with a sophisticated, struck-match reduction on the nose, bright, succulent fruit in the middle and a fine, toasty mineral finish. Made from relatively young vines planted on limestone soils in the village of Meloisey, this is fermented and aged in oak barrels, giving a wonderful expression of fruit-focused Burgundian Chardonnay.
