Robert Parker’s tasting notes on the Montagny Premier Cru Les Burnins 2017: “From a parcel of 80-year-old vines that contain some muscaté selections, the 2017 Montagny Premier Cru Les Burnins reveals lovely aromas of musky peach, citrus blossom, ripe green apples and fresh pastry. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, fleshy and textural, with lovely purity and an elegantly complete profile. Its substance suggests it may prove Aladame's longest-lived bottling.”

History

1992

Domaine Stéphane Aladame has been managed by Stéphane Aladame since 1992. This is the year when 18-years-old Stéphane Aladame decided to set up his own domaine in native village of Montagny. The first vineyards were purchased in 1993 - they were 2 hectares of Montagny Premier Cru, which marked the real start of the estate. Since that time the vineyards of the domaine have expanded 4 times and now cover 9 different plots.

Approach

Organic since 2000, Sustainable since 1992

Domaine Stéphane Aladame has been farmed organically since 2000 and following the sustainable principles since 1992. The work on the soils is done mechanically, meanwhile, harvesting is done only manually. Exclusively natural treatments are used.

In the cellars Stéphane Aladame prefers low-intervention vinification. The grapes are not destemmed, pressing is done with whole bunches. Then the light settling is carried out. Fermentation is done on indigenous yeast, both, in barrels and tanks, depending on the plot. The new wood does not exceed 15 percent. Ageing is conducted after malolactic fermentation.

The wines are fined and filtered before bottling. Sulphur may be added if needed.
