Saint-Aubin
1er Cru En Remilly
After a cold and dry start to the year, temperatures rose quickly at the end of March, triggering a rapid resumption of the growing cycle. A few morning frosts impacted part of the vineyard at the end of April but without major damage. The flowering period takes place in a few days at the beginning of June in superb weather. The summer is hot and sunny but delivers some welcome storm rain to help the plant enter the veraison stage. The harvest takes place at the beginning of September with ideal weather and impeccable health quality of the grapes.
Vineyard
This terroir protects the Montrachet vineyard from the frost. This historical terroir of Saint Aubin, ravaged by phylloxera was replanted during the seventies. Limestone soil. During the night, grapes are still warmed by the stones heated by the sun. Mineral character, like flint in a dynamic style.
