Production Details The six-hectare Clos du Bourg is hand-harvested and farmed biodynamically; Polaner classifies this release as certified biodynamic but does not identify the certifying body. After the producer’s 24-hour settling step, the juice is divided between vats and old barrels. For this 2022 record, Polaner specifies temperature-controlled fermentation in large old-oak demi-muids and stainless-steel vats, no encouragement of malolactic fermentation, and maturation in large demi-muids.
Tasting Notes Vinous described white stone fruit and nectarine, with honeysuckle and jasmine-like floral notes, fine texture and a defined line.

For this 2020 record, Polaner specifies temperature-controlled fermentation in large old-oak demi-muids and stainless-steel vats, no encouragement of malolactic fermentation, and maturation in large demi-muids. Its stated traditional demi-sec residual-sugar range is approximately 10–20 g/L, not a finished-wine analysis for the 2020 release.
Tasting Notes Wine Advocate, tasting a tank sample shortly before the April 2021 bottling, described lemon fruit, darker tones, firm tannin, richness, power, elegance, salinity, tension and grip. Rebecca Gibb MW for Vinous described pure fruit, spice, crème caramel, apple and floral notes with volume but no heaviness.
