2023 Jean-Paul Brun Terres Dorees Beaujolais Blanc, France Cavarodes Chardonnay and Savagnin100% Chardonnay. On his home estate in hilly Charnay in the southern Beaujolais, Jean Paul Brun started planting Chardonnay in 1983 on the sandy clay limestone soils. The farming is organic and harvest is by hand. The bunches are destemmed and fermented with native yeasts and without sulfur in concrete vats. Malolactic fermentation occurs naturally and the lees are stirred periodically. The wine is aged in steel and concrete and bottled in the spring
