Description

After 2022, another year that brings joy to our hearts. Free from major climatic turmoil, graced by a gentle winter and a splendid spring bloom, 2023 quickly hinted at a generous harvest to come. Summer unfolded like a mysterious dance—between waves of heat and refreshing coolness, dry spells and sudden, stormy rains. The harvest reached its full potential, with varying ripeness from one plot to another, making 2023 a vintage that reveals, more than ever, the singular soul of each terroir.

This Bourgogne comes from a vineyard of approximately 5 ha in one piece, located at the foot of the Château de Puligny-Montrachet. It is entirely enclosed, which facilitates our biodynamic cultivation method. Although classified as AOC Burgundy, this vineyard is remarkably well located in the village, very close to the AOC Puligny-Montrachet vines. The deep soil, made up of silt and clay, endows the wine with beautiful generosity.

After a light settling, the musts are put into 228 and 600-liter-barrels to complete the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations. We work with 5 to 20% new barrels with wood coming mostly from Allier, light toasting. The wines are racked about a year later before being transfered to stainless steel vats for the second phase of their aging in order to retain freshness and minerality.

Organic since 1995 and biodynamic since 2005. All our wines are certified by Ecocert.

Review
A more floral-infused nose speaks mostly of various white orchard fruit aromas that are trimmed in barely noticeable wood. The succulent, round and delicious flavors also deliver good length on the equally well-balanced finale. This too is good for its level and worth a look.
