Chassagne-Montrachet

In Chassagne-Montrachet, large marble stone quarries form a rocky front: in Paris, the Trocadéro or more recently the Louvre Pyramid used this stone in pink or beige paving.

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

When on the Santenay side (deeper and more clayey soil), or on the Puligny side (light and pebbly soil), the wines produced are different. This cuvee is a blend of our own vineyards (Houillères and Pierres), and grapes purchases on the terroir of Charrières, Blanchot Dessous, Les Benoites, Les Mazures-et-Voillenots.
