Terroir

Clayey-limestone soil, with a clayey predominance. We own 1,05 hectares of vines located between Vosne-Romanée and Clos Vougeot.

Winemaking and Aging

Grapes are harvested in leaky boxes and sorted out. They are destemmed and put in tanks. Punching of the cap is made during alcoholic fermentation, without pumping over.
Fermentation on the skins last between 15 and 20 days. Then wine is put in oak barrels, after a light settling of the juice, for a period of ageing included between 12 and 18 months.
Wine making and maturing are carefully followed by Robert Vernizeau, a talented winemaker.

Tasting notes

Nose brings white flowers (seringa) and fruits aromas (crunchy cherries). Mouth is powerful and complex, with ripe tannins and good aromatic persistence

Food and wine pairings

It will perfectly match with prime cut of beef, beef coast, duck cutlet with honey, as well as goat fresh cheese.

Service and cellaring

It can be served at the ideal temperature of 13-14° C or kept in cellar between 8 to 10 years.

Art of tasting

Owning great wines in your cellar is not enough, you also need to know how to serve them.
Temperature is an essential element around 53-57°F for the white and 55-59°F for the red. And if you don't have the right tasting glass which will amplify the wine's aromas, you may considerably reduce your tasting pleasure.
A great glass gives a large ventilation surface to the wine and a tightening neck, which allow the nose to grasp more casily the richness and the complexity of a great wine.
