Good to know: As one of the leading biodynamic wine specialists in Burgundy, combined with the expertise of winemaker Eric Germain, Domaine Vincent Girardin makes use of indigenous yeast during the fermentation process of their wines. Winemaking additives were discontinued, as were herbicides and insecticides. They also harvest grapes earlier than intended in order to ensure balance and avoiding over ripening. The use of new oak has been strictly limited, focusing more on the length the wines are stored in the barrel. This allows the wines to develop a more delicate and subtle complexity and elegance.
Vincent Girardin's Bourgogne Blanc Cuvee Saint-Vincent is a great Burgundy white to introduce newcomers to the region's style or for veteran winos who want to re-experience Burgundian Chardonnay at its purer and more basic form. An aromatic wine with fruity, floral notes and a lot of delicacies in the mouth. Lots of freshness and minerality.
A prestigious domaine based in Mersault, Domaine Vincent Girardin is highly regarded for the creation of some of the best biodynamic wines in Burgundy today. Having inherited five acres of vines from his parents, whose family goes back to the 17th Century in Burgundy, 19-year-old Vincent Girardin, went out on his own in 1980 to produce the best grapes he could find in Côte de Beaune. In 2001, he shifted his focus on the purity and elegance of his wines rather than the concentrated and heavily extracted styles in the 90's. This eventually led to the revolution on the style of wines being produced in the region.
Vincent Girardin’s Bourgogne Blanc “Cuvée Saint-Vincent” 2022 is a vibrant and polished Chardonnay crafted from 35-year-old vines across the Côte de Beaune. Fermented with native yeasts and aged for 11 months in large French oak barrels—only about 10% new—followed by time in stainless steel, the wine develops a layered profile of citrus peel, mirabelle plum, pineapple, white flowers, and subtle hints of honey and toast. On the palate, it is medium to full-bodied with a creamy texture, bright acidity, and a mineral-driven backbone that leads to a smooth, elegant finish. This cuvée offers a fine balance between richness and freshness, making it a versatile match for shellfish, grilled fish, poultry, or fresh cheeses, while also offering the potential to age gracefully over the coming years.
