Santenay
The 2020 vintage is a unique vintage. It is marked by historic precocity from budburst, with an advance of 3 weeks, until the harvest which took place entirely in the month of August. High temperatures associated with a lack of precipitation cause a significant water deficit as well as evapotranspiration phenomena in July and August. The absence of rain, on the other hand, allows the health of the grapes to be very satisfactory. The particular conditions of this vintage generate wonderful balances.
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)..
