Santenay
A demanding vintage. 2023 is now seen as the hottest year with the temperatures above seasonal averages. This vintage is also characterized by significant water deficit during the growing season and strong disease pressure. We also noticed strong heterogeneities in maturity with dynamics that are difficult to anticipate. The harvest was generous, allowing us to carry out a thorough sorting, especially on the Pinot Noir.
Vineyard
Located at the South border of la Côte de Beaune, the village of Santenay is very sprawling. The soils are brown and limestone. It is a small blended cuvée from three plots on the hillside (Les Bras, Sous la fée, Sous Roche)..
