DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
Lying in the southern part of the Chassagne appellation, it rubs shoulders with the 1er cru Santenay plots "La Comme" and "Les Gravières". This 1er cru plot occupies one of our most elevated situations.
History
Brought back under cultivation in the early sixties, this climat was totally abandoned after the phylloxera crisis due to its distance from the village. The truffle-bearing oaks which had grown up there had diameters of 40-50 cm, testimony to a long period of disuse.
Terroir
The slightly-sloping ground is banked, the soil not very stony and, up-slope, fairly deep and compact, resembling white clay.
Tasting
Two parcels, equal in area, planted in 1973 and 2002 respectively, yield this wine which generally offers great delicacy, elegance and minerality. In youth in can be a touch acidic but this is a guarantee of its keeping qualities.
