Aline Beauné

 

While 2018 marked Aline Beauné’s first solo vintage, she is no stranger to winemaking in the Côte Chalonnaise. For 15 years, she led winemaking at Château de la Crée in Santenay before deciding to branch out on her own. When the Buxy co-operative’s lease on 5 hectares of her family’s 12-hectare Montagny vineyard ended, she seized the opportunity.

Her vines, located in Saint-Vallerin, are split between Aligoté, Bourgogne Blanc, Montagny Villages, Montagny 1er Cru Chazelle and she also has one or two Santenays. Committed to organic conversion, she has eliminated herbicides and chemical rot treatments, instead focusing on preventative care and meticulous vineyard management. She also incorporates select biodynamic preparations to energize the soil.

In the cellar, oak is used with restraint—never exceeding 10% new wood in the 1er Cru—allowing the terroir to shine through. The vineyards’ large pebbles retain heat, enhancing bright tropical fruit flavors, while the porous chalk soils contribute to a concentrated yet beautifully integrated acidity. These wines are electric and vibrant in their youth, with exceptional ageing potential.
