The next generation of talent in the Côte Chalonnaise has arrived—and the name that’s causing a serious stir is Maxime Cottenceau. A native of the village of Buxy, south of Givry, Maxime comes from a long line of growers, yet is the first to bottle wines under the family name. And what a start for a young winemaker, training under one of France’s greatest winemakers and Rully native, Vincent Dureuil-Janthial! Maxime tends just a few acres of vines naturally, following the lunar calendar—wines here are textured, supple, complex and expressive.
