Description
A well-balanced, elegant wine that is representative of the best of Burgundy's white wine heritage. Rijckaert Bourgogne Blanc is a white wine from the Burgundy region of France. This wine is made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Burgundy vineyards. Bourgogne Blanc is considered to be one of the finest white wines in the world and is known for its crisp acidity, elegant minerality, and subtle fruit flavors. The wine will typically have a pale yellow color and a medium body. It is likely to have moderate to high acidity and moderate to low alcohol content, and it can be enjoyed with a variety of foods, such as shellfish, grilled fish, and salads. ABOUT DOMAINE RIJCKAERT The Domain Rijckaert was created in 1998 by Jean Rijckaert, a passionate Belgian established as a wine producer in Burgundy since 1990. Nowadays, in addition to 4 ha in South Burgundy, the Domaine RIJCKAERT cultivates 5,5 ha of vineyards in the Jura where Jean felt in love of outstanding terroirs. Thus, there are two cellars: one at Davayé (South Burgundy, near Mâcon), one at Les Planches, near Arbois in the Jura. The Maison RIJCKAERT also purchases fine grapes from all Burgundy vineyards, vinificated with the same precision and the same savoir-faire as its own vineyards. In 2013, Jean decided to gradually pass the torch of his passion on to Florent Rouve and also pass down the “savoir-faire” that have made the reputation of his wines: restricted yields, manual harvesting, slow and moderate pressings, indigenous floras, long wine aging and, ...some precious secrets! A careful and natural winemaking, which aims to express the typicality of the grape and the specificity of the terroir where it comes from.
