Respecting the elegant, even delicate style of the Côte d'Or wines, this French oak barrel is made for Burgundian-style Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. The unique toast is typical of barrels coopered and used in Burgundy. A toasty, medium impact barrel, Côte d'Or offers integrated tannins and a rich sweet mid palate with a pronounced hint of sweet smoke on the finish.
