Arbois Blanc “En Barbi Chardonnay” 2022 | Wine from Domaine du Pélican

TheDomaine du Pélican, managed by Guillaume d'Angerville, is the fruit of a passion for viticulture that spans generations. Guillaume, also at the head of Domaine Marquis d'Angerville in Volnay since 2003, represents the sixth generation to manage this historic Côte de Beaune property. In search of new horizons, in 2006 he turned to a wine region outside Burgundy. Inspired by a blind tasting of a Chardonnay d'Arbois by Stéphane Tissot in 2007, he decided to set up in the Jura. This estate, close to Volnay for careful supervision, offers exceptional terroirs and unique winemaking. Domaine du Pélican produces wines with a distinct character, combining tradition and innovation, thus providing a remarkable sensory experience.

The Arbois Blanc "En Barbi Chardonnay" 2022 from Domaine du Pélican comes from a south-facing plot, benefiting from early maturity thanks to its protected location. Planted around fifteen years ago on clay-loam soil with gray marl, this vine offers excellent drainage. This Chardonnay, vinified and aged separately in barrels and tuns, reveals a subtle minerality and beautiful tension. On the palate, it combines volume and acidity, while its nose combines floral and flint notes.
