A single-vineyard white from a rising Hautes-Côtes star. La Couleuvraire is a Chardonnay lieu-dit just outside David Trousselle's cellar in Baubigny — a protected valley between Saint-Aubin and Saint-Romain where Chardonnay thrives on clay-limestone soils. Trousselle barrel-ferments in the classical Burgundian way, ages roughly 10 months in just 20% new oak, and works native yeast throughout. The estate is organically farmed and ECOCERT certified from 2022. 2024 is the unambiguous star vintage for white Burgundy from this corner: citrus tension, mineral cut, and that distinctive Hautes-Côtes saline lift. A serious wine for the price tier.

More about David Trousselle

David Trousselle and his wife farm six hectares in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune—one of Burgundy's last frontiers for actual value and real flavor. They make single-vineyard Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, transitioning to organic certification. Meticulous in the vineyard, minimal intervention in the cellar. These wines prove the best Burgundy doesn't need famous names or high prices. Just good farming and good winemaking.

From the Importer

Tasting Notes & Food Pairings

Perfect Pairings

Roast chicken with lemon and tarragon, sole meunière, or a creamy seafood gratin. Also pairs beautifully with aged Comté, mushroom tart, halibut crudo, or a classic Wiener Schnitzel.

Tasting Profile

Lemon zest, green apple, and white blossom over a saline-mineral spine, with a whisper of hazelnut and toasted brioche from oak. Medium-bodied, taut acidity, long, chalky-mineral finish.

Heidi is like the cool aunt who bought you beer in highschool and introduced you to singers like Janis Joplin. This maven of Rust has spent her life fostering its culture and traditions. A place she has intimate knowledge of as the 8th matriarch of her family estate.

Her collection of vineyards surrounds the town on well drained slopes of gravel, sand, clay and limestone soil. Even though she’s got very old vines she’s still experimenting with new varieties and training techniques, trying to stay ahead of the world’s rapidly changing weather patterns.

Heidi was a founding member of Cercle Ruster Ausbruch, an organization formed by the few remaining Ausbruch producers. Once the most famous wine of Austria, it had fallen out of fashion and was nearly lost to antiquity. The group has also replanted Furmint, the main grape in Hungarian Tokaj, celebrated for its high acidity and sensitivity to botrytis. It disappeared after phylloxera wiped it out but is not being prized once more for both sweet and dry wines.

The dry wines of the estate are split between classic and modern cuveés, like her old-vine Blaufrankisch and wild Rosé Biscaya. The sweet wines though, especially the whimsical sounding Wings of Dawn belong in every collectors cellar.
