The Domain Borgeot that Pascal and Laurent Borgeot founded in 1985 with a few key parcels of Santenay vines that they inherited from their father, has grown into one of the most respected wineries in the Cote de Beaune. The Borgeot brothers use only organic fertilizers, pay close attention to soil conditions and strive to limit vine yields naturally shows a primary concern for the health of the grape crop. The classic ‘floating cap’ is pumped over and punched down twice a day. A modern pneumatic press and temperature control equipment play an essential role in the outcome of the wine. The goal is to preserve the fruitiness of the harvest, while bringing out the individual minerality of the various parcels. All of the wine, except the Aligote, is oak-aged, the amount of oak and the age of the barrels depends on the wine and the vintage (25% new oak is average). After a light filtration, the wines are estate-bottled under anaerobic conditions.
