The 2022 Domaine Jean-Marc et Thomas Bouley Côte d'Or Chardonnay is a refined white Burgundy crafted in the Côte d’Or, showcasing the purity and elegance of the region’s terroir. Made from carefully selected Chardonnay fruit, it reflects a classic Burgundian style with precision and balance. The nose is fresh and expressive, offering notes of citrus, green apple and pear, layered with subtle hints of white flowers, toasted almonds and a touch of minerality.
On the palate, it is medium-bodied with a clean, vibrant texture and well-integrated oak. Bright acidity supports flavours of orchard fruit, lemon zest and a light creamy nuance, leading to a crisp, elegant and lingering finish. The style is poised and terroir-driven, highlighting finesse over richness.
Ben’s Recommendation:
At Wine More Cellars, this is a great introduction to classic Côte d’Or Chardonnay for those seeking balance, freshness and subtle complexity. Ideal for fans of Chablis or restrained white Burgundy styles. Drink now or over the next 4–6 years. Perfect with seafood, roast chicken, creamy pasta or light cheeses.
