Vineyard
The vines are located in the regional appellation area of the Côte de Beaune (on the municipalities of Meursault, Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet) in the limit of appellation village and on the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune in the area near Saint-Romain.
Clay and limestone.
Chardonnay. Guyot pruning with different yearly works in the vineyard (pruning, trellising on wires/tying-in, thinning fruit-bunches). The vines are 45 years old.
Vinification
Manual harvest, sorting on vines. In the winery, after a slight crushing, the grapes are pressed using our pneumatic presses.
Following a slight settling, the grape must is put into 500-litre French oak barrels (no new barrels) in which alcoholic and malolactic fermentations will take place to produce yeasts and indigenous bacteria. Aging is done on fine lees for 6 months. Without mashing. Three months before bottling, the wine from the different barrels is racked in a vat. Bottling is preceded by a slight fining and a light filtration.
