Château Vitalis
Burgundy • Macon-Fuissé • Chardonnay
"In the golden hills of the Mâconnais, Château Vitalis sculpts Chardonnay with astonishing precision. Wines that are a reflection of Burgundy's sun and the freshness of its limestone soils."
The Purity of Mâconnais
Owned by the Dutron family, Château Vitalis represents the best of family viticulture in Burgundy. Its vineyards stretch across slopes where the clay-limestone soil allows Chardonnay to develop the complexity typical of the great southern appellations.
The Macon-Fuissé region is known for producing whites with a generous roundness yet a vibrant backbone of acidity. At Vitalis, the "minimal intervention" philosophy is followed, a key concept promoted by the OIV to preserve the identity of the terroir.
"Burgundy in every glass: the harmony between the power of the Mâconnais sun and the elegance of the limestone earth."
