From the estate
AGE OF VINE
50 years old
GEOLOGY
The vines are located in the regional appellation area of the commune of Chassagne-Montrachet. In the appellation area of the 1er crus "Morgeot". Soil : deep clay and limestone. Pruning is done in Guyot with various green works (disbudding, trellising, pollarding).
VINIFICATION
Manual harvesting, sorting on the vines and then sorting on a sorting table (in some years, use of an optical sorting machine) in the winery.
BREEDING
After a light crushing and destemming, the grapes are put in stainless steel tanks. A small amount of whole grapes may be added depending on the condition of the raw material. After a cold maceration of a few days, the active phase of fermentation takes place with temperature control. During this phase, pumping over and/or punching of the cap is practiced. After pneumatic pressing, the wines are put in barrels (about 30% new wood) where the maturation takes place. This lasted 16 months, during which the malolactic fermentation took place. One month before bottling, the wine from the different barrels is blended in vats. No fining and a light lenticular filtration precedes the bottling. Some modifications on the overall technique can be made depending on the vintage. The bottling is done according to the lunar calendar.
TASTING
This wine is very complete, fruity with aromas of violets, small black fruits, blackberries, blueberries and Kirch. This wine is very balanced and its nose is quite round.
