Côte chalonnaise

CÔTE chalonnaise

Juicily charming and flowingly elegant wines

Taken over by the Picard family since 1991, the main characteristic of the Voarick estate is its size. No less than 68 hectares of vines are in fact vinified in the estate's new cellars, completely renovated between 2018 and 2020. Almost all of the vineyard is planted near the farm, between Saint Martin sous Montaigu and Mercurey. But it would be inappropriate to imagine finding a large winemaking complex there. The winegrower approach is essential, the plot work required and this from pruning, through vinification and aging to bottling. We are fortunate to own many parcels in the Mercurey appellation, whose soils and subsoils can vary significantly. This natural diversity, exacerbated by an environmental vineyard management, makes it possible to sculpt wines with different aromatic and tannic complexities. The philosophy is identical for the other appellations of the estate, located in the neighboring village of Givry. Charm, roundness, accessibility, precision, these are the attributes of the wines of the Voarick estate.

Taken over by the Picard family in 1991, the Voarick estate is particularly notable for the diversity of its soils. The 68-hectare vineyard in the Mercurey and Givry appellations is mainly located near to the winery, between Saint-Martin-sous-Montaigu and Mercurey. The estate's new wine cellars, which were completely renovated between 2018 and 2020, allow for the most accurate transcription possible of the numerous parcels whose soils and subsoils vary significantly.

The ‘vigneron’ approach, from vinification and maturation to bottling, is demanding due to the necessary block-by-block work and the size. This natural diversity, compounded by environmentally-friendly vine management, allows us to develop wines of different aromatic and tannic complexities. Charm, body, accessibility and precision characterise the Voarick estate wines.
