After experiencing the splendour of the Royal Court of Versailles, this vineyard, extending over nearly 5,000 hectares in 1830, was damaged by phylloxera and various wars. The Auxois region has been forgotten since the 19th Century until 1979, when the vineyard obtained the certification of Indication Géographique Protégée ''Côteaux de l' Auxois''. Through the purchase of 15 ha of vines in this terroir, spanning the villages of Villaines les Prévôtes and Viserny, Maison Simonnet-Febvre reveals its traditional and innovative vision of winemaking in ''Greater Burgundy''. | |

Tasting note |
This wine is elegant and harmonious. Supple and delicate on the palate, with mineral notes coming through. The blend Chardonnay, Pinot Gris gives the wine a good balance and a long finish. A perfect companion for appetizers, meats and fish with sauce or grilled.
