Presentation
The diversity of the terroir gives rise to a rich and dense wine that is closer to the roundness and sophistication of a Vosne-Romanée than the power of a Clos de Vougeot from the northern part of the appellation
The vintage
Location
0.75 hectares of vines, 40% of which were planted in 1992 and 60% in 1944. Our plot is located in the southern part of the appellation, at the angle of the wall separating Les Echézeaux from Clos de Vougeot in the lieu dit of Les Baudes Basses.
Terroir
Its originality stems from the length of the rows which extend over 200 meters across three different soil types:
- Pebbly soil with a high proportion of clay
- Soil comprising small pebbles with a high proportion of red clay rich in iron oxide
- A finer clay-silt soil
In the Bourgogne winegrowing region, we often talk of a “rounded” cuvée because it includes all the soil types one finds in the appellation.
