Domaine Grégoire Hoppenot Beaujolais Blanc, 2023

Regular price $22.00

This 100% un-oaked Chardonnay comes from the area just south Mâcon. The wine opens with a pale straw‑yellow hue, bright and clean. On the nose one immediately picks up citrus blossoms and zesty lemon, shifting toward yellow apple and a hint of white peach. There’s also a subtle minerality—chalk or wet stone—that lends freshness, alongside hints of orchard fruit. On the palate it is medium‑bodied, dry, with taut acidity but not sharp; the fruit is juicy and pulpy, citrus again, maybe even a touch of grapefruit, balanced by gentle richness. It has precision and a lively energy, with a clean finish that leaves citrus peel and a slight almond or stone note lingering. Because the grapes were hand‑picked, naturally fermented and aged in tank (i.e. no oak), the profile is pure, direct, fruit‑forward, yet refined. Pair with roast or grilled chicken, perhaps with herbs (thyme, rosemary) or a light lemon‑butter sauce.

Winemaker's notes:

This is an anomaly in the portfolio. Hoppenot does not work with any Chardonnay vines, yet felt compelled by the offer of a parcel in 2020 from a grower in Crêches-sur-Saône in the north of Beaujolais (just south of Mâcon).

Hand-picked, naturally fermented and raised in tank, it’s a bright and pulpy white Burgundy with oodles of punchy, citrusy, mouth-watering fruit and impressive precision. Due to the lack of winery space, Hoppenot is not sure when he will make another white Burgundy, but given the deliciousness and value on offer here, we hope he finds the room soon.
