Vintage Character Domaine François Lumpp Givry 'La Brûlée' Premier Cru 2023 is a red Burgundy from the Givry Premier Cru appellation in the Côte Chalonnaise, crafted from Pinot Noir. The 2023 vintage in Burgundy was generous and generally successful, with a warm growing season and healthy fruit delivering ripe flavours while retaining the freshness that keeps the best wines finely balanced. La Brûlée is one of Givry’s warmer, well-exposed premier cru sites, and its stony, limestone-rich soils help give this cuvée a distinctive mix of supple fruit, savoury lift, and firm mineral definition.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing On the nose, this wine shows vivid red cherry, raspberry, wild strawberry, violet, and a hint of rose petal, followed by subtle spice and discreet oak. The palate is medium-bodied and precise, with silky tannins, bright acidity, and a fine chalky thread running through the core of red berry fruit; the finish is persistent, energetic, and gently earthy. Its combination of charm and structure makes it a natural partner for roast duck, herb-crusted pork tenderloin, or seared tuna with sesame.
Winery Background Founded in 1991, Domaine François Lumpp has become one of the reference-point estates of Givry, widely admired for raising the profile of the appellation through meticulous work in top premier cru vineyards. The family’s philosophy centres on low yields, careful canopy management, hand-harvesting, and rigorous fruit selection to express each climat as clearly as possible. In the cellar, fermentation and élevage are handled with precision rather than excess, using oak to frame rather than mask the fruit, and that combination of concentration, purity, and site transparency is what makes Lumpp a benchmark name in the Côte Chalonnaise.
