Gault&Millau's review 2023

Stemming from the fine 2012 harvest and supplemented by 13% reserve wines, this cuvée fully expresses its clay-limestone terroir with a full-bodied mid-palate, preceded by a tight first palate and leading to a taut finish. Serve with chaource at the end of the meal.

Bolieu

Third-generation winegrowers Laurence and Charles Baffard, who took over the family domaine in 1998, cultivate their 6.5 ha of vines on the Vitryat hillsides with fervor and sincerity. This confidential terroir, well known to the big houses, is a veritable "chalk soil" with clay incrustations, ideal for the expression of well-aged Chardonnay. The vines are spread over fifteen villages near Vitry-le-François. The wines are characterized by delicate exotic notes, which are also found in the domaine's cuvées. The estate is a member of the Passion chardonnay winegrowers' association, which groups together a dozen winegrowers.
