White dry
This wine reveals itself through the aromatic qualities of white flowers, citrus fruits, and peaches and apricots. On the palate, it is rich and creamy, complemented by an aftertaste of ripe tropical fruits, honey, and vanilla. The finish is fairly long, while balanced acidity and minerality lend the wine a refreshing character.
Serve at 12–14 °C with white fish, poultry in a delicate sauce or soft cheeses.
Coudray-Bizot is a historic Burgundy winery located in the famous 15th-century Château David de Beaufort cellars in the city of Beaune. The winery is renowned for its exceptional respect for ancient Burgundy traditions and manages highly valuable Premier Cru and Grand Cru vineyards in the Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune regions. Discover these rare, expressive, classic-style wines in our assortment and enrich your collection.
The history of Coudray-Bizot is closely linked to Dr. Bizot, a former surgeon at the legendary Hospices de Beaune hospital. Today, the family traditions he started and nurtured are continued by his grandson, Jean-Jacques Coudray-Bizot. The winery strictly adheres to the principles of minimal intervention: utilizing natural fermentation with wild yeasts, aging in oak barrels, and bottling the wines without filtration. This approach allows the authentic terroir characteristics of each vineyard to be maximally revealed, showcasing the true harmony between nature and human craftsmanship.
The producer manages a small but carefully selected portfolio of the highest quality vineyards. Each plot is maintained and cultivated separately to highlight its uniqueness. The most important vineyards of the estate include:
The estate's red wines are produced exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes. They are deep, featuring polished tannins, well-integrated acidity, and complex notes of red berries, spices, and earth. The white wines made from Chardonnay grapes demonstrate Burgundian elegance, mineral precision, and maintain a highly refreshing structure.
Coudray-Bizot employs traditional aging methods – the wines are kept in oak barrels for 18–24 months. To avoid overpowering the natural expression of the grapes, the amount of new oak is kept moderate. Although these wines can provide pleasure even at a young age, the estate's best examples, especially the Grand Cru and Premier Cru, mature perfectly for 10–20 years and longer, acquiring incredible refinement.
