We own 99% of this Premier Cru located on a limestony and clay soil with a clay predominance. They are 3.50 hectares (8.66 acres) of vines in the South of Nuits-Saint-Georges on a smooth and south facing slope. One of the most beautiful and qualitative Premier Cru of the Appellation

Winemaking and Aging

Grapes are harvested in small cases, then sorted out and totally destemmed. The harvest is punched down during alcoholic fermentation, but not pumped over. Vatting during 15 to 20 days.
After a light settling of the juice, the wine is filled up in oak barrels for ageing during 12 to 18 months.
