The appellation
This Bourgogne comes from a vineyard of approximately 5 ha in
one piece, located at the foot of the Château de PulignyMontrachet. It is entirely enclosed, which facilitates our
biodynamic cultivation method. Although classified as AOC
Burgundy, this vineyard is remarkably well located in the
village, very close to the AOC Puligny-Montrachet vines. The
deep soil, made up of silt and clay, endows the wine with
beautiful generosity.

The wine and the style
After a light settling, the musts are put into 228 and 600-literbarrels to complete the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations.
We work with 5 to 20% new barrels with wood coming mostly
from Allier, light toasting. The wines are racked about a year
later before being transfered to stainless steel vats for the
second phase of their aging in order to retain freshness and
minerality.

Vine growing
Organic since 1995 and biodynamic since 2005. All our wines
are certified by Ecocert.

The vintage
Vintage 2021 had everyone talking very early in the growing
season due to the terrible spring frost that hit the region
between April 6 and 8, 2021. Temperatures dropped to -8°C
(17°F), irremediably damaging harvest volume. The vines
timidly resumed their development, the relatively cold and wet
days of July and beginning of August keeping them a bit behind
schedule throughout the summer. With twice as many
treatments to push off mildew outbreaks, the growing season of
2021 was quite the challenge for our team but everyone’s
efforts paid off! Inevitably, volumes were down by 60% on
average with major disparities. Chardonnay vines were more
affected by the frost because they were ahead in their
vegetative cycle compared to pinot noir. Yet, the musts
surprised us all with exceptional crisp and stellar freshness. As
a result, 2021 unveils a classic and well-balanced profile. Far
from the solar character of the previous three vintages, it
reveals airy textures and lovely drinkability, combining
pleasure and purity.

Tasting note
Light, zesty and leesy bouquet with perfect balance. A step up
from the classic Bourgogne chardonnay with more class and a
long enveloping texture.
