Chardonnay, Saint Veran

Producer Details Roger Cordier started the Domaine in 1930 with just 5 hectares. When Christophe took over in 1987 he stopped selling to negociants and focused on improving the vineyards, converting to organics & reducing yields. In 2015 he opened a new entirely gravity fed winery in Fuisse with the aim to take even more care during the vinification and aging process. The estate is now 35 hectares including some of the best vineyards in Pouilly Fuisse and surrounding Macon appellations, “a mosaic of parcels’ as described by Christophe, understandably so when he confirms that there are over 120 differing plots. Farming Christophe Cordier has been farming biodynamically since 2018 and hopes to acquire certification from the 2023 vintage from Demeter. All fruit is hand picked, whole-bunch pressed with 90% of all movements in the wine production process done by gravity. Natural yeasts on all wines. All wines are fermented in large wooden vats or foudre. No fining, light filtration. 1er
