Chassagne Montrachet Jean Jacques Girard 2022
Jean-Jacques Girard
Dating back to 1529, Domaine Jean-Jacques Girard is a leading producer of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Aligoté wines in the commune of Savigny-lès-Beaune in Burgundy’s Côte de Beaune. Assisted by his son, Vincent, seventh-generation winemaker Jean-Jacques Girard produces wines from more than 16ha of vineyards planted across 17 appellations. These include the Savigny Premiers Crus of Les Fourneaux, Les Lavieres, Les Peuillets, Les Rouvrettes, Les Serpentieres, Les Fichots and Les Vergelesses, along with Les Fretilles 1er Cru in Pernand-Vergelesses, Clos du Roi 1er Cru in Beaune and the prestigious Grand Cru of Corton-Charlemagne.
In the cellar, the site-specific whites are fermented in oak casks of different sizes, depending on the parcel, before being matured in Burgundian oak barrels (15% new) for 10-12 months, with regular battonage until the end of malolactic fermentation. For the domaine’s top reds, grapes are fully destemmed and undergo a short maceration in open vats before temperature-controlled fermentation and maturation in 15-25% new oak for up to 15 months.
