Terroir

VINE PLANTING DATE: 1980.

LOCATION: vines planted in the lieu-dit "La Côte aux Prêtres", situated on an East/West facing dome opposite the Château de Béru. It owes its name to its close proximity to the paths taken by pilgrims heading towards Vézelay and Santiago de Compostela.

ORIENTATION: East / West. The vines are planted on either side of the hill. One side facing East, the other facing West. The East-facing grapes provide crispness and acidity, while the West-facing grapes bring fleshiness and ripeness.

TERROIR: KIMMERIDGIAN (Upper Jurassic) limestone soil. The erosion of the limestone by winds and rain has covered the bedrock with a layer of small pebbles, giving the wine great tension and a beautiful minerality.

Viticulture & Vinification

HARVEST: Manual.

YIELD: N/A.

SORTING: In the vineyard and at the winery.

VINIFICATION: Long and gentle pneumatic pressing of the grapes. Followed by cold static settling in vats. Racking into Burgundian barrels for fermentation. No oenological additives, indigenous yeasts only.

AGING: 12 months in Burgundian barrels, followed by an additional 12 months in vats on fine lees.

BOTTLING: Unfined and unfiltered. Light sulfiting if necessary, depending on the vintage.

CORK: Natural cork

Sommelier's Note

"A superb Chablis, extremely rich and complex. Its slightly creamy nose reveals an exquisite bouquet of aromas: almond paste, candied citrus, white peach, with a hint of pear, all within a crisp, invigorating, and mineral palate that stretches into a mouth-watering, lemony finish: a wine of great sapidity! "
