It was estate-grown and bottled by viticulturist J.-F. Cognard at Domaine des Granges.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine originates from Beaujolais, an extensive area located south of the greater Burgundy region and north of Lyon, stretching down towards Mâcon. The 1988 vintage from this area is described as structured and classic, achieving a score of 90 points. While Beaujolais spans roughly 15,000 hectares and is primarily known for its red wines and the Beaujolais Nouveau tradition, it encompasses diverse terroirs. The northern Haut Beaujolais features granite soils, whereas the southern Bas Beaujolais is characterized by clay-limestone. Vines here are often cultivated in the traditional gobelet form without wire trellising. The overarching Burgundy region, shaped by medieval monks who meticulously mapped its countless terroirs, is renowned for its finely meshed system of climats and limestone soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis Beaujolais Blanc is crafted from Chardonnay, one of the world's most recognized green grapes. While it is cultivated globally in areas such as Champagne, California, and Oregon, it holds a historical and prominent presence in Burgundy, where the region focuses almost exclusively on this variety alongside Pinot Noir.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Domaine des Granges","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57119393710406,"sku":null,"price":78.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/3478\/1950\/files\/generated-697_f9113354-51c9-4759-9315-ac273d53806e.jpg?v=1786615162","url":"https:\/\/bottleswithhistory.com\/products\/beaujolais-blanc-j-p-cognard-1988","provider":"Bottles With History","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
