Who makes it
Christophe Cordier operates Domaine Cordier from Fuissé, in the Mâconnais. The estate makes exclusively white wines from Chardonnay, with individual plots spread across nine villages and several Mâconnais appellations. Organic and biodynamic viticulture began in 2018, and the entire estate has been certified organic since the 2024 harvest.
Chardonnay remains constant while the village and appellation change from bottle to bottle. The estate's range follows those local differences through white Burgundy made from one grape.
Where it grows
Fuissé is the home village of Domaine Cordier in the Mâconnais, a Burgundian region with several appellations. The estate's vineyards extend beyond Fuissé into other local villages, so the wines carry different geographic designations while remaining white Chardonnay.
Appellation names provide the main distinction between the bottles. The grape stays the same, while the place named on the label changes with the parcels used.
What they make
Domaine Cordier produces a range of white Chardonnay wines across multiple Mâconnais appellations. The portfolio is organised by village and appellation rather than by colour or grape variety, since the estate works exclusively with Chardonnay.
Chardonnay brings acidity and a textured white wine frame, while different local addresses create variation within the range. The bottles therefore move through the Mâconnais by place, with the grape and colour held constant.
