Alain could be called Mr Chardonnay because for the past 30 years that is the only grape he has worked with and without a doubt he has one of the most prestigious estates in the appellation of Montagny.
In a nutshell, Alain makes this one wine and it is as lively as his personality. If you could ever taste a personality, then this wine is Alain's. He chooses to blend different parcels of his Premier Cru wines from the Montagny appellation to achieve the white flower aromas and lively rounded finish of the Château de la Saule. The resulting wine rivals the more famous appellations of the Burgundy region and is simply a stunning drink.
