Gault&Millau's review
2023 92/100
No dosage to allow this magnificent but still too young vintage to express itself through its terroir. In spite of everything, the palate remains wise and not too opulent. The chalky texture expresses itself delicately, and the richness of the harvest will enable this cuvée to age for a long time, to be enjoyed with a potée champenoise.

Bolieu
Third-generation winegrowers Laurence and Charles Baffard, who took over the family domaine in 1998, cultivate their 6.5 ha of vines on the Vitryat hillsides with fervor and sincerity. This confidential terroir, well known to the big houses, is a veritable "chalk soil" with clay incrustations, ideal for the expression of well-aged Chardonnay. The vines are spread over fifteen villages near Vitry-le-François. The wines are characterized by delicate exotic notes, which are also found in the domaine's cuvées. The estate is a member of the Passion chardonnay winegrowers' association, which groups together a dozen winegrowers.
