Product notes
Situated in the esteemed Cote Chalonnaise subregion, this vineyard consists of multiple plots, each contributing unique qualities to the wine. The vines vary in age, benefiting from favorable elevation and orientation for optimal sun exposure. The diverse soil types, with distinct local names, enrich the grapes' flavors. The continental climate ensures consistent grape ripening, carefully monitored during harvest to avoid weather-related risks like hail or frost.
Production notes
The winemaking uses natural ambient yeasts in stainless steel tanks, preserving the purity of the fruit and allowing precise fermentation control. The aging is done exclusively in stainless steel, maintaining freshness and showcasing the vineyard's terroir. This meticulous process results in a refined expression of the Côte Chalonnaise, capturing its distinctive character and quality.
Tasting notes
Rich in flavors, fruity, it reveals a nice freshness on the finish with mineral and iodized notes. With a limpid and crystalline light gold color, often adorned with green reflections. Tones of citrus, white flowers (hawthorn, acacia) and flint. An aromatic wine, unctuous and firm, dry and caressing, with a beautiful persistence.
