Domaine Aline Beaune
Located in the appellation of Montagny, at the southern edge of the Côte Chalonnaise, Domaine Aline Beauné offers a refined and quietly expressive interpretation of Burgundy’s white-wine terroirs. Focused exclusively on Chardonnay, the domaine captures the freshness, limestone tension, and understated elegance that define Montagny at its best.
Aline Beauné’s vineyards are rooted in calcareous and marl-limestone soils, often on elevated, well-ventilated slopes that favour slow, even ripening. This natural setting gives rise to wines marked by clarity, balance, and a distinctive mineral imprint. Viticulture is carried out with care and restraint, prioritising soil health, vine equilibrium, and harvest precision to preserve natural acidity and aromatic finesse.
In the cellar, the approach is equally measured. Fermentations are guided rather than forced, extraction is gentle, and élevage is calibrated to enhance texture without overshadowing the wine’s natural expression. Oak is used discreetly, allowing citrus notes, white flowers, and stone fruit aromas to unfold alongside a clean, chalk-driven backbone.
The wines of Domaine Aline Beauné are characterised by their poise and drinkability — Montagny rendered with elegance rather than weight. They offer immediate pleasure while retaining enough structure and energy to evolve gracefully over time, making them particularly well suited to gastronomy and refined pairing.
Discreet yet precise, Domaine Aline Beauné stands as a compelling example of the Côte Chalonnaise’s potential, producing wines that reflect both the authenticity of their origin and the thoughtful hand of their maker.
