Pacaud Vignerons - Monsieur Jacques - Burgundy White 2022
Pacaud Vignerons is a wine estate located in Chassela s, between Mâconnais and Beaujolais. The Pacaud family has been running the vineyard for 3 generations, but the entire production was sold as grape juice until 2014, when Julien decided to vinify his first vintage. In 2021, he is joined by his brother Sébastien, a nature enthusiast who studied biology. Although they do not have the same professional profiles, their respective skills and experience make them perfectly complementary, with a similar culture and approach to vines and wine. The 13-hectare vineyard is divided into the communes of Chasselas, Leynes, Fuissé, Loché, Chaintré and also Saint-Amour in Beaujolais. The estate is certified in organic farming , and a biodynamic labeling process has been initiated.
Monsieur Jacques is made from Chardonnay harvested in the communes of Leynes and Saint-Amour. After the manual harvest, the harvest is directly pressed in whole bunches. The wine is aged for 9 months on fine lees in concrete and stainless steel vats.
Grape variety: 100% Chardonnay
