Chateau de Lavernette "Les Vignes de la Roche" Beaujolais Blanc, Beaujolais, France 2020
Château de Lavernette's 'Les Vignes de la Roche' is the ultimate insider secret for Chardonnay lovers. Technically Beaujolais, these vines grow a few steps from the Pouilly-Fuissé border, offering that same limestone-driven depth at nearly half the price.
Tasting Notes
"Fragrant white flowers and juicy white fruits laced with a distinct mineral edge, beautifully balanced by a gossamer acid finish that lingers. Pair with roasted poultry, creamy pasta dishes or a buttery lobster roll." — Harvest Wine Shop

About Château de Lavernette
The chateau and estate were originally the property of the monks of the abbey of Tournus. They became the seigniory of Lavernette in 1596. The vineyards were already a part of the domain grounds and at that time, existed a “tinailler” (wine storehouse) containing two presses and four large tanks. Today the property of Chateau de Lavernette, located in southern Burgundy belongs to the de Boissieu family, descendants of the Lavernette family. It is at the crossroads of the Mâconnais and Beaujolais wine regions between the villages of Leynes and Chaintré.
Since 2007, Xavier, the son of Bertrand and Anke, and Kerrie his wife, work all together on the family estate by combining their qualities, experiences and knowledge to produce high-class wines. The vineyard is cultivated according to the techniques of organic farming since 2005 in order to respect the environment and to create wines that reflect their terroir. Reconversion to organic and biodynamic viticulture since 2007; certification ORGANIC and DEMETER.
