Armand Heitz: "In my opinion, the Bourgogne Côte d'Or or Bourgogne Chardonnay appellations impose unsustainable farming practices, whereas the Bourgogne Blanc appellation allows for more flexibility." The estate’s plots are situated near some of the most prestigious vineyards of the Côte de Beaune, in the villages of Saint-Aubin, Meursault, and Pommard. The soil consists of clayey-silt on marl, with marl being recognized as the ideal base rock for Chardonnay to thrive. The wine's aroma reveals notes of peach, yellow plum, asparagus, pencil shavings, and vanilla. On the palate, high acidity is balanced by a buttery texture.
At Domaine Armand Heitz, they work with significant turbidity levels to enhance the wine’s intensity and complexity. Selections are made to ensure the wines from Domaine Armand Heitz achieve finesse and elegance. Tasting serves as the primary tool for adjusting interventions throughout the vinification process, all the way to bottling. Key winemaking decisions, such as pigeage, pumping over, and devatting, are made based on tasting results. Each vintage is unique, requiring Domaine Armand Heitz to carefully adapt their practices. For both red and white wines, the goal at Domaine Armand Heitz is to minimize inputs and interventions to allow the terroir of each appellation to fully express itself, made possible by the exceptional quality of the grapes.
