History
It also forms the north tip of the Golden Triangle, where the finest white wines of Burgundy come from, along with the villages of Puligny-Montrachet and Chassagne-Montrachet.
Vinification and maturing
The grapes were hand-picked and sorted manually as soon as they arrived at the winery. They were then pressed in a pneumatic press which allows for perfect extraction of the juices without over pressing the grapes.
Vinification and ageing took place in wooden barrels with a proportion of 40% new oak. The wine was aged on the lees for 9 months without batonnage and then further aged in vat for 2 months.

Vintage : 2022
2022 weather conditions were uncertain, but mild in the end throughout the season!
The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.
Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.
A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds.
The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
