Burgundy (or Bourgogne in French) is a legendary wine region in eastern France. Most of the red wines are made from pinot noir grapes and white from chardonnay grapes.
\nBurgundy has a higher number of AOCs (84) than any other French region, often seen as the most terroir-conscious. The various AOCs are classified from grand cru vineyards down to non-specific regional appellations.
\nChablis is the furthest north-region and produces some of the greatest whites.
\nFurther south lies the C\u00f4te d\u2019Or, split into C\u00f4te de Nuits, home to many of the world\u2019s finest Pinot Noir wines, and C\u00f4te de Beaune where Chardonnay plays a more prominent role, though outstanding red and white are produced throughout.
\nFurther south is the C\u00f4te Chalonnaise and the Maconnais with Burgundy\u2019s best priced wines.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6915″ img_size=”400×200″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
In 1903 in Nuits-Saint-Georges, Alexandre de Mayol de Lup\u00e9 and F\u00e9lix de Cholet decided to join forces to create the House which still bears their name, Lup\u00e9 Cholet.
\nOwners of 25 hectares of vineyards in Chablis and the C\u00f4te d\u2019Or, the winery also has long-established partnerships with various wine growers throughout Burgundy. In the vineyards, the best grapes are selected for vinification in the cellars at Ch\u00e2teau du Clos de Lup\u00e9.
\nCareful selection of the grapes, light pressing, partial or total de-stemming, cold maceration prior to fermentation are the techniques used to imprint the style of the wines.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
