Additional information: The Cote des Bar is Pinot country, but there is a growing appreciation for Chardonnay in the regi on. This makes complete sense as, at a glance, the soils reveal themselves to be nearly identical to those you find in Chablis – rocky, Kimmeridgian, and Portlandian clay and limestone. Davy Dosnon is a fan of Chardonnay and makes a small (in volume) Blan c de Blancs cuvee that is broad and rich in texture but with a pinpoint minerality that more than hints at a Chablis with bubbles.
