Edouard Delaunay Bourgogne Septembre Chardonnay 2021

This oaked chardonnay is creamy and indulgent but is still pleasingly balanced with acidity.

Gorgeous pale gold in colour with a highly expressive nose redolent of white blossoms, jasmine and pollen, underscored by fresh citrusy notes (bergamot, candied lemon), along with a lovely touch of well-integrated oak that is expressed by fragrance of fresh hazelnut and almond. A spicy touch of fresh white pepper rounds off the nose. Starts off rich and intense on the palate, with lovely acidity balanced by pleasing ripeness. Then follow iodine nuances and mineral notes of flint and lichen. This elegant, complex wine boasts vivacity and good length, and features a slightly toasted saline finish.

A true Renaissance story makes Edouard Delaunay a Phoenix in Burgundy.

Founded in 1893, Edouard Delaunay is an old House with a rich and singular history that contributed significantly to the development of Burgundy throughout the 20th century. Unfortunately, the company had to be sold in 1992 much to the disappointment of Laurent, the founder’s great-grandson who had recently joined his father in the business.

Determined to rebuild the estate, he created Badet-Clement in 1995 specialising in wines from the South of France, before returning to Burgundy in 2003 as a distributor.

Finally, in 2017 he was able to buy it back, with the aim of restoring its position among the great names of Burgundy.
Starting with the 2017 vintage, Maison Edouard Delaunay offers a selection of around thirty vintages concentrated on the Côte de Beaune and Côte de Nuits, ranging from regional appellations to Grands Crus.
Recognition followed suit being awarded IWC winemaker of the year in 2020 & 2021, a mere 3 years after its revival!

Precise, subtle, well-balanced wines, without excess, for the most demanding wine lovers and enthusiasts throughout the world.
