Wild yeast ferment in old, large oak fermenters with maturation in older oak too. It is bottled unfiltered with minimal SO2 added for stability. This is almost as far north in burgundy that you find Pinot Noir. It is light juicy and dangerously drinkable. The wines of Goisot are remarkably good value still. One of the best value Burgundy estates in my opinion.
Notes on the producer
Tucked away in the small village of Saint-Bris between Chablis and Auxerre, Domaine Goisot really deserves to be better known. Guilhem and father Jean-Hugues Goisot, like all top vignerons in France, recognise that great wine comes from great viticulture, and they work tirelessly in the vines to ensure that their parcels are as well treated as is possible. Their viticulture is certified biodynamic, with great pains taken to produce as natural an environment for the wines, with a particular goal of stimulating the natural defences of the wines against disease and depredation. We truly believe they are one of the best value Burgundy estates out there.
