About this wine

Les Blanches is a cool, limestone-rich site that Galeyrand uses for a refined, gastronomic white Burgundy. The wine shows lemon, pear and white peach, with subtle hazelnut and flint notes from barrel ageing and lees contact. It’s medium-bodied, with good mid-palate weight and a taut, mineral finish.

On the palate

Jérôme Galeyrand

Jérôme Galeyrand is a rising star of the Côte de Nuits, working mostly with old vines on cooler sites from Bourgogne-level to Gevrey-Chambertin. Organic-leaning farming, significant whole-cluster use and delicate extractions give wines that are perfumed, silky and full of nuance. His reds show a very pure, transparent expression of Pinot Noir, with a lovely balance of charm and depth.
