Product notes

This appellation is rather small. The “Drazey” vineyard is located next to Les Sentiers and Les Baudes. The very stony soil is composed of limestone with gravel.

Well balanced mouth with supple tannins, a nice rhythm and a beautiful Côte de Nuits architecture, very lively aromas and a nice minerality. Pairings with sweetbreads and rib of beef
