Beaune

Clos Des Monsnières

This large plot, in Beaune, forms a semi-circle around the places called “Les Mondes Rondes”. It was deforested about sixty years ago. The name of this Climat comes from the old French “Mansion” which means residence/home.

The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances.

Vineyard

Vineyards surrounded by walls on 3 sides, with their backs to the Montagne de Beaune and with a magnificent view of the Pommard vineyard and the Côte. Planted in 1986. Quite shallow clay-limestone soils over ironstone gravel enable Chardonnay to ripen slowly.
