ABOUT THIS WINE
Domaine Jean Féry Savigny-lès-Beaune La Cabotte Aimande 2022 is a 100% Chardonnay from the Savigny-lès-Beaune AOC in Burgundy, France. The wine's name, 'La Cabotte Aimande,' evokes traditional vineyard shelters and the subtle sweetness of almonds, connecting it to Burgundy's viticultural history. The grapes are sourced from organically farmed vineyards, 'Ez Connardises' and 'Les Planchots de la Champagne,' which have limestone and clay soils. Domaine Jean Féry & Fils is a family winery established in 1922, now managed by Jean-Louis Féry, who has overseen vineyard expansion and a commitment to organic practices since 2011.

WINE MAKING PROCESS
The production of Domaine Jean Féry Savigny-lès-Beaune La Cabotte Aimande 2022 begins with whole grape clusters being gently pressed to minimize oxidation. The resulting juice is cooled and allowed to settle for 24 hours before being transferred to oak barrels for fermentation. The wine then undergoes an aging process of 15 to 17 months in these oak barrels, with 20% of them being new. This method is employed to develop the wine's structure and integrate the oak characteristics.
