Appellation

Coteaux Bourguignons

Variety

Chardonnay

Even though the vineyards of the Chatillonais are famous for sparkling wine (because they are so close to Champagne), Jeanne Piollot was quickly entranced by the potential to produce great still wines from these vineyards which are, after all, in Burgundy. Alchémille is a 100% Chardonnay crafted in Jeanne's own style.
