Astringence : the sensation of roughness conveyed by the drying of the mouth and gums after tasting wine.

Bacchus : the Roman God ruling over wines and vineyards.

Balanced : characterises a wine where acidity and softness (as well as tannin in the case of red wines) balance each other well.

Since its foundation in 1898, Les Paulands have included a winery which has promoted the region of Burgundy and its wines, the Côtes de Beaune in particular.

Immediately on his arrival in 1986, Mr Fasquel - who had been ranked France's 3rd best wine waiter– expanded the scope of Les Paulands' activities : his task consisted in selecting and purchasing the best wine vintages of the area, allowing wines to mature in oak barrels (12 to 24 months) and bottling the vintages prior to sale.

With a passion for fine wines, Christophe Fasquel welcomes you each day between 8am and 6pm for wine tasting sessions and advice in the cellar.

Please do not hesitate to visit the cellar to find out more about our exceptional milléssimes (wine vintages), whether for your own pleasure or in contemplation of a magnificent gift.

Discovering and visiting the cellar

Les Paulands sell and ship their wine to customers not only within the national borders of France but also throughout Europe and worldwide : about 50,000 bottles of different appellations are sold each year.

The shipped wines are mainly Premiers Crus (first vintages) of Appellations d'Origine Contrôlée (controlled designation of origins) as well as prestigious vintages known as Grands Crus (great vintages), 80% of which are red and 20% white. There are also Crémants blancs or rosés and table wines.
