2019 Victor de La Combe Burgundy Red Wine – Anne & J-Francois Ganevat

Discover this exceptional Chardonnay from Anne et Jean-Francois Ganevat of France’s Jura region—a wine crafted with meticulous care and a touch of Burgundian inspiration. Sourced from Macon’s finest vineyards, this 2019 vintage showcases a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. Aged for two years in large oak foudres (foudre-aged Chardonnay), it offers a distinctive profile shaped by biodynamic farming practices that prioritize sustainability and purity.

The palate bursts with vibrant green apple skin nuances, complemented by mineral-driven notes of crushed stone and beeswax, while a subtle pollen hint adds complexity. Its zesty acidity and saline-mineral finish create a refreshing yet layered drinking experience—ideal for pairing with seafood or enjoying as an apéritif. At 12% alcohol by volume, it balances elegance with approachability.

What sets this wine apart is its unique origin story: though rooted in Burgundian techniques, it’s declassified due to its Jura-based aging and bottling process—a deliberate choice that highlights its artisanal craftsmanship over regional categorization. Fans of organic wines will appreciate its biodynamic certification, ensuring every sip reflects respect for both terroir and tradition.

Whether you’re seeking a sophisticated addition to your cellar or a standout pour for special occasions, this Ganevat Chardonnay delivers unmatched depth and authenticity. Its rare combination of biodynamic integrity and Burgundian-inspired craftsmanship makes it a must-try for discerning wine lovers.
