Givry wines – fine reds and elegant whites from Burgundy

 Givry: the elegance of the red and white wines of the Côte Chalonnaise

The Givry appellation, located in the heart of the Côte Chalonnaise in Burgundy, is renowned for its fine, fruity red wines made from Pinot Noir , as well as its elegant white wines made from Chardonnay . This village appellation, which also includes Premier Cru vineyards , perfectly embodies the Burgundian style: finesse, precision, and expression of the terroir. Highly prized for their excellent value, Givry wines appeal to both casual wine lovers and connoisseurs.

A historic and renowned vineyard

Givry boasts a long winemaking history. Already appreciated in the Middle Ages and praised by Henry IV, Givry wines are among the oldest and most renowned in the region. The appellation covers approximately 280 hectares for reds and 40 hectares for whites, spread across the communes of Givry, Dracy-le-Fort, and Jambles. The continental climate and clay-limestone soils bring balance, freshness, and typicity to the wines.

Charming reds

Givry red wines are made exclusively from Pinot Noir . Their color is generally a brilliant ruby, and the nose opens with aromas of cherry, raspberry, sometimes peony or sweet spices. On the palate, they are supple and silky, with fine tannins and a harmonious structure. Certain vineyard sites, particularly Premier Cru, produce deeper wines, capable of aging for 5 to 10 years.

Bright and balanced whites

The white wines of Givry, made from Chardonnay , are less well-known but remarkably refined. They offer aromas of white flowers, citrus, white-fleshed fruit, and sometimes a subtle buttery note. On the palate, they are lively, mineral, and possess a beautiful length. They are an excellent alternative to the great white wines of the Côte de Beaune.

Food and wine pairings with Givry

Red wines pair perfectly with grilled meat, roast pork, free-range poultry, or mild cheeses. They complement both traditional and more modern cuisine. White wines, on the other hand, are wonderful with grilled fish, seafood, vegetable risotto, or goat cheeses.
