Saint-Romain

The landscape flares out here in broad perspectives. It is one of the first Celtic and Gallo-Roman vine sanctuaries in Burgundy.

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

Pretty village overlooking la Côte de Beaune and turning its back on the vineyards of les Hautes Côtes. Planted on brown and limestone soil where the rock is deep, the vines have to be brought to a certain maturity obtained at the end of the season. Our vintage is produced from the terroirs of En Poillange, La Perrière, Combe Bazin, en Chevrot and Sous le Château.
