Product Details

Product Description

VIneyard notes: "• CLIMAT AND SOIL: the most renowned of the Great Growths of the village, near to the Grisard Valley, this vine plot is less steep than Clos de Bèze and colder. Situated facing the sun as it rises, the amount of sunshine here is ideal. At the top of the slope, the soils are white and marly, thus slowing down the vine’s growth cycle. At the bottom of the slope, the soils are a mixture of marl and limestone, with superb, very brown clay. All of this is covered with scree and a relatively shallow layer of silt. Nestled halfway up the slope with excellent drainage, it is the choice terroir for Pinot Noir. The combination of top and bottom gives rare balance to this Chambertin. • AREA UNDER VINE: 0.15 of a hectare. • AVERAGE AGE OF THE VINES: 60 years old. • GRAPE VARIETY: Pinot Noir. • VINE GROWING: Single Guyot pruning, horse-drawn ploughing, neither fertilizers nor chemical weed killers are used, only organic soilenrichers."
