Product notes
The ground is close to the limestone slab. This wine is very expressive, both rich and fruity. The grapes harvested from this vine ripen more quickly than in most other Chablis vines and always give this premier cru good maturity.
Production notes
After gentle pressing, part of the juice is fermented in 456 liter double rooms and the other part vinified and aged in stainless steel vats. Aging lasts 13 to 15 months on fine lees before preparation for bottling.
