Arnaud Baillot Hautes Côtes de Beaune Blanc 2021
Vintage Character
Arnaud Baillot Hautes Côtes de Beaune Blanc 2021 is a Bourgogne wine from the Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellation. Spring frost and unsettled weather tested the vines, while rain from late June into early August increased disease pressure. Dry conditions and a north wind from mid-August then aided ripening; Pinot Noir generally preceded Chardonnay at harvest. Smaller crops and a return to more typical September picking dates distinguish this cooler year from the warmer seasons around it. For Chardonnay, the important question is how ripe orchard fruit and texture sit alongside acidity; its particular site and classification set the expectation for depth without removing the need for freshness. The September picking rhythm and smaller crop distinguish this cooler vintage from the adjacent warm years.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing
The balance of lemon freshness with pear and white peach matters more here than any obvious oak signature. On the palate it is dry and medium-full in body, with medium-high acidity running through the Chardonnay fruit and mineral notes adding a rounder middle. Try it with grilled sea bass, roast chicken and creamy mushroom pasta; the medium-high acidity cuts through richness while the medium-full body holds up to the sauces. Serve at 8–10°C so the lemon and pear stay in focus.
Winery Background
Arnaud Baillot works with his wife Laure from Beaune, selecting small parcels across village, Premier Cru and Grand Cru appellations. He favours restrained new oak and an approach that lets the place stay legible in the finished wine. In the estate's Burgundy range, this is the Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune appellation bottling. Chardonnay and the Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune name set the wine's frame, and the 2021 season shapes its balance.
