100% Pinot Noir, from vines planted at the beginning of the 1960s, on a plot situated mid-slope, in stony, brown limestone soil, facing south/southwest. The grapes are harvested by hand at maturity. Vinification: about 70% whole bunches, followed by 23 days in vats with punching down and pumping over, gentle pressing, settling by gravity, and 18 months of maturation in oak barrels, 30% of which are new. The barrels are blended in vats and matured an additional three months before being bottled with a microdose of sulphur.
