Presentation
Located in the hamlet of Poncey, south of Givry, Domaine Vincent Lumpp covers 9 hectares and is recognized for its rigorous and precise work on Givry Premier Crus. The vineyard is cultivated in sustainable agriculture, with particular attention to parcel selection and soil work. The whites, made from Chardonnay, are slowly pressed and vinified in barrels, developing great aromatic complexity and a beautiful mineral framework.

The estate stands out for its meticulous work by appellation, revealing all the typicity of Givry Premier Crus, through wines of great purity and precision.

Tasting
A pale gold wine, clear and lively, with honeyed or citrus notes and hints of linden and lily, evolving into dried fruit and toasted aromas after a few years. On the palate, it is refined, balanced between roundness and acidity, which gives Givry wines great ageing potential and a long finish.
