Meursault

Les Clous

The word Clous is a closer word to "Clos" (Burgundian variant)

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

The vineyard is on the hillside, facing east, divided into two parts. There is a lot of clay in the soil, but it is friable by nature, so easy to work. Our plot is located in Clous Dessus on the border of Tillets.
