About

Located in the Côte de Beaune, between Beaune and Volnay, Pommard, its wines and its beautiful residences mark the place where the Côte slopes slightly towards Autun.

Terroir

Planted in a terroir with very different natures of soil, we have to choose a style without underestimate the entire and even a little bit rustic character which corresponds to the wines from Pommard when they are young. We chose to produce an elegant wine with the vineyards located mainly in the hillsides (Chanlins, Refènes, Grands Poisots, Cras, En Moigelot et La Croix Planet). The nature of the soil is mainly brown and limestone. The grapes from several plots are blended in the tanks.

Vinification

The grapes are grown in calcareous clay soil. 100% Pinot Noir. 100% destemmed berries. Alcoholic fermentations in open vats for 14 days. 16 months ( 4 months in stainless steel tank) 100% in oak barrels (20% new oak)

Tasting Notes

It is a Pommard full of elegance, fruit and finesse. There are notes of red fruits and a supple texture.

Food Pairing

Ideal with a beef steak or a hare stew.

Smoked meat and spice aromas are joined by flavors of cherry, blackberry, stony mineral and toasty oak. Lively and densely structured, this muscular red is fresh and long on the finish. Best from 2026 through 2038.
