Vintage Character Domaine François Lumpp Givry 'Teppe des Cheneves' Blanc 2023 is a village-level Givry Blanc from Burgundy, drawn from the named lieu-dit Teppe des Cheneves. The 2023 vintage was widely regarded as a strong and generous one in Burgundy: warm conditions brought full Chardonnay ripeness, while timely water reserves and fresh nights helped retain lift and definition. In Givry, this balance is especially appealing, and the wine’s limestone-rich soils with clay components give the fruit both supple depth and a distinctly stony, saline edge.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing William Kelley awarded the 2023 91 points for The Wine Advocate, underscoring the precision this cuvée can achieve. Expect aromas of lemon peel, white peach and orchard fruit, layered with acacia blossom, toasted almond and a subtle touch of fresh butter or brioche. On the palate it is dry, concentrated and energetic, with a fine core of citrus and stone fruit, a gently creamy texture from lees influence, and a finish that turns more mineral and chalky as it lingers. It pairs beautifully with roast chicken, grilled Dover sole, or crab risotto.
Winery Background Founded in 1991, Domaine François Lumpp has become one of Givry’s reference-point estates, prized for exacting vineyard work and remarkably consistent quality. François Lumpp established the domaine after separating from the family estate, and the next generation, Pierre and Anne-Cécile, continues that detail-driven philosophy. The domaine is known for low-intervention, site-conscious winemaking, with careful fruit selection, measured use of barrel, and élevage designed to preserve terroir rather than overwhelm it. That combination of precision, restraint and deep knowledge of Givry is what makes Lumpp such a benchmark producer.
