MOILLARD - Bourgogne Chardonnay 100% Fûts - France
Moillard was founded in 1850 in NUits-Saint-Georges, at the heart of Côte de Nuits. It is still a 100% family owned by Famille Helfrich. We still vinified our red wines in the historical winery in Nuits Saint Georges and age some of our best crus in our vaulted cellar built in 1873. We are an estate of 10 hectares and a négociant éleveur.
Colour : Brilliant pale yellow robe with golden highlights.
Nose : The nose, enhanced by the vanilla and toasted notes of the oak barrel, evokes floral, peach and almond scents.
Palate : Powerful and tense attack, the middle of mouth is all in roundness and length.
Pairing: To be enjoyed with a fish in cream sauce or poultry with Epoisses. Serve between 10-12 degrees

Vineyard Info
Moillard was founded in 1850 in NUits-Saint-Georges, at the heart of Côte de Nuits. It is still a 100% family owned by Famille Helfrich. We still vinify our red wines in the historical winery in Nuits Saint Georges and age some of our best crus in our vaulted cellar built in 1873. We are an estate of 10 hectares and a négociant éleveur. Maison Moillard is an institution in Nuits-Saint-Georges. Our House has unique know-how in the art of making and maturing Burgundy wines and Crémants and offers a fine selection of appellations throughout Burgundy, from Chablis to Mâcon and up to in Beaujolais.
Grapes mainly come from plots located in the Mâconnais, with limestone soils rich in calcium. As the south of Burgundy benefits from a sunnier climate, we obtain very rich and ripe grapes from vines between 15 and 40 years old.
