  • Vinification : The grapes are transported in crates from the vineyard to the estate. After sorting on a selection table, the bunches are lightly crushed. Maceration is carried out with whole bunches, without punching down, relying solely on daily pump-overs to extract the wine’s aromatic and colour structure. The vatting lasts around 15 days, during which alcoholic fermentation takes place. Pressing is done in the purest Burgundian tradition, using a state-of-the-art press. The wines are then racked and transferred into barrels.
  • Ageing : Aged in oak barrels for 18 to 24 months in our cellars (malolactic fermentation completed). Bottled at the estate.
