Production Details Practicing-organic farming. The wine comes from a 0.49 ha parcel with vines more than 75 years old in one of Chassagne's highest-altitude sites. It was fermented and aged for 12 months in 350 L barrels, 13% new, followed by six months in tank.
Tasting Notes Wine Advocate, 30 January 2025: crisp stone fruit, apple blossom, toasted almond and struck-match aromas; concentrated and satiny, with racy acidity and a long chalky finish. Vinous, 9 January 2025: discreet, slightly reductive aromas with notable weight and tension.
