Saint-Aubin

1er Cru Chatenière

Ground where chestnut trees and hazel trees were planted.

A dream vintage which offers generous volumes and superb quality. Water is a major player during the winter which allows the vines to build up their reserves before a particularly hot and dry summer. Favored by a mild spring, flowering took place perfectly with beautiful and numerous clusters. No major climatic incident hampers the growing cycle. The harvest, which was in impeccable health, took place from August 27 to September 15.

Vineyard

Exceptional view on the vineyard of la Côte. Terroir facing to South-West sited in small, white and very limestone terrasses. A steep enough slope gives an early enough maturity. It became a famous terroir for the last fifteen years.
