About

Joannès Violot-Guillemard's Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Beaune “La Foulotte” blanc 2021 is a Chardonnay with lovely freshness, white fruit aromas, delicate minerality and balanced acidity.

Your questions, our answers.

Could this Chardonnay seem too sharp if I’m sensitive to acidity?

It has plenty of freshness, but its acidity is described as balanced, which may be reassuring if you’re wary of overly sharp whites. However, that doesn’t mean it can be described as a low-acidity wine.

Is this a good choice if I prefer fruity whites to very mineral wines?

White fruit aromas are an important part of its stated profile, while its minerality is described as delicate. So you can choose it without necessarily looking for a pronounced mineral expression.

Is this cuvée a good match if I’m looking for a rich, powerful Chardonnay?

The information provided mainly highlights freshness and balance. It doesn’t guarantee the richness or power you’re looking for, so it’s not the best-documented choice for that particular preference.

If I want to discover Joannès Violot-Guillemard, how should I choose between La Foulotte blanc and the 2021 Pinot Noirien rouge?

La Foulotte is the one to choose if you’re looking for a fresh Chardonnay with notes of white fruit and subtle minerality. The 2021 Pinot Noirien is a red wine; without tasting notes, it’s not possible to compare their structure or intensity.

Can I serve this bottle to introduce friends to Burgundy Chardonnay?

Its combination of white fruit, freshness, and delicate minerality offers a starting point for exploring this expression of Chardonnay. Present it as a specific example from the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune rather than as a summary of all Burgundy whites.
