Domaine Cottenceau is an exciting, young estate located in the Côte Chalonnaise region of Burgundy, France. Established in 2021, the winery is run by Maxime Cottenceau, a talented young winemaker who trained under the legendary Vincent Dureuil-Janthial. Maxime farms his old vines organically, following the lunar calendar to respect the natural rhythm of the land. His meticulous, low-intervention approach in both the vineyard and the cellar results in beautifully precise, mineral-driven white wines that perfectly express the unique limestone soils of Montagny.
'La Moullière' vineyard sits at the southernmost edge of the Montagny Premier Cru appellation. It features an ideal south-southeast exposure that allows the grapes to ripen perfectly in the sun. The soil is a unique mix of blue and white marl clay, which gives the wine its striking crispness and deep mineral flavors.
