Vineyard

Located on the higher level, this well-exposed to South-East climat is generally early during the harvest. The brown limestone sloped soil is shallow. The style of the wine is fairly full-bodied, like Pommard, the neighboring village. Our cuvee is produced with the purchase of grapes from several small plots in this terroir.

Tasting note

This wine displays a beautiful concentration, revealing a rich and deep substance which coats the palate with elegance. Its expressive character is evident from the first moments, carried by an explosive bouquet on the nose, combining intense aromas of ripe red fruits, such as cherry, raspberry and jammed strawberry. On the palate, fullness and harmony, offering a tasting that is both generous and refined.
