DESCRIPTION
DESCRIPTION
The vines are around the village of Meursault, above the Premier Cru parcel "Les Genevrières”. Soil : Clay and limestone with a little bit more chalk. The slope is strong. East exposure. 100% Chardonnay - Guyot pruning with different seasonal processes in the vineyard (pruning, trellising on wires/tying-in, thinning fruit-bunches).
The grapes are harvested by hand and sorted. They are lightly pressed then in a pneumatic press at a low pressure to get a slow extraction. After a gentle racking of the must, the wine is put in French oak casks of 228 liters (15% of new oak) for both of alcoholic and malolactic fermentations with wild yeasts and wild anaerobic bacteria during 16 months.
Ageing on fine lees. A month before the bottling, the wine from the different barrels is put in a stainless steel tank to make the blend. The wine is finally fined and lightly filtered before bottling it according to the lunar calendar ("fruit” day).
Wine with great minerality. The register is oriented mainly on the aromatic flint. The mouth is often lively and full of complexity.
Fishes, crustaceans, white meat.
