Terroir
These vines grow on very chalky soil on the lower part of the hillside with much more clay on the upper part; the opposite on the rest of the Côte de Beaune. This is due to a limestone fault in the middle of the plot which has resulted in lots of limestone mother rock outcrops on the lower part of the slope.
Varietal
Pinot Noir : 100%
Advice
Tasting
This wine is always very lively thanks to the strong presence of limestone in the soil. It is racy and powerful, with great depth.
