DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
In Burgundy dialect,"charmes" denotes old common land, cultivated and laying fallow, or fallow fields covered by hornbeam woods. The iron ore contained in the soil used to be transported to Langres for knife manufacture.
Vines grow on limestone outcrops covered in thin, red-coloured soils, containing marl, iron and stones, some of which are fairly sizeable. The rocky subsoil is highly resistant but fissured, allowing the vine roots to dig down deep, hence their surprising longevity. Certain plots can reach up to 100 years' of age.
