Givry Blanc
As 90% of the Givry appellation is red, the white really is something of a rarity, and 3D Partners at Domaine Ragot drink about 5% of the appellation's entire production of white Givry!
It was Jean-Paul's parents who planted a small area of Chardonnay - just to see what happened. These vines, now more than 45 years old, produce the most marvellous white burgundy. It is quite aromatic, with a floral note to the bouquet - reminiscent of acacia, hawthorn and apple - and has a rich, smooth, citrus and honey flavour with just a hint of almonds. It is delicious within two or three years of the vintage, when vibrant with refreshing acidity, but will also mature well, becoming deeper in colour with a rich and powerful bouquet.
