Domaine de la Bongran

Sort By:

An extremely traditional winery, owner Jean Thevenet, learned everything he knows from his quality obsessed father. The property consists of 37 acres spread out along foothills of the Quintaine hills in the Maconnais region of Southern Burgundy. The vineyards are devoted exclusively to Chardonnay. Thevenet's wines are not considered "classic" by Maconnais standards; favoring low yields and long fermentations only with natural yeasts, his wines have somewhat of a gold hue and can often times be massively rich and ripe.

Bongran 2002 Vire Clesse Tradition

Item WH498

Chardonnay: Burghound 89 pts "A moderately exotic and nicely complex nose of lychee nut, apricot and mango leads to noticeably sweet, round and utterly delicious medium full flavors that are generous but with no trace of heaviness and there is good vibrancy to the solidly long finish. This would be a great choice for an aperitif or summer sipper yet it's a serious wine with sneaky length and fine intensity that could be enjoyed now or left for several years in the cellar. Recommended. Outstanding!"
