- Winemaker: Dimitri Bazas
- Farming: Practicing Organic, HVE certified
- Variety: 100% Chardonnay
- Terroir: Fruit from Puligny, Meursault, and Rully. Combines the mineral character of Côte d’Or Chardonnay with the riper fruit of the Côte Chalonnaise. Clay-limestone soils.
- Vinification: Traditional Burgundian approach with indigenous yeast. Alcoholic fermentation takes place entirely in oak barrels. Whole-cluster pressing for the whites.
- Aging: Ten months in oak, with 30% new barrels. Bottled on a fruit day according to the biodynamic calendar.
- Alcohol: 13%
- Tasting Notes: Pale gold with green reflections. The nose is open and fresh, with lychee and honeysuckle, then orange blossom. The attack is rich and smooth, with a round body. The finish is long, and the wine is often compared to a Meursault in style.
- Food Pairings: On its own as an aperitif with gougères, foie gras toasts, or smoked salmon. Risotto. Veal sweetbreads in a cream sauce. Soft, bloomy-rind cheeses such as Brie de Meaux, Chaource, or Vacherin.
