Vincent Girardin is the 11th generation of Girardins to have produced wine in the commune of Santenay and has now introduced biodynamic grown methods. His reds are of consistently high quality, with the emphasis being on purity of fruit and smooth, supple tannins. However, it is with whites that he really excels, producing a range of wines that are characterised by their depth of fruit and exquisite balance. These whites are extremely approachable when young but the top crus benefit from 4-5 years of bottle ageing.
