Production Details Base-2019 release: bottled in 2020, disgorged in July 2024 after 48 months on lees, with a release-specific dosage of 2 g/L. The musts fermented with native yeasts; pre-bottling maturation lasted almost one year on fine lees. The page contains two specification conflicts: its main description says over 50% fermented and matured in barrel and names Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzenay, while its quoted Wine Advocate review says the wine was vinified entirely in wood and adds Verzy to a 20% non-Ambonnay component.
