The 55-year-old vines are grown in the single vineyard ‘Les Marchais’ which faces the 1er Cru plots of Lavaux St Jacques and clos St Jacques. It is one of the best plots in Gevrey Chambertin. Alluring raspberry and cherry with notes of dried fruits on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with a little earthiness, this well-structured wine shows balanced oak, with fine ripe tannins. Silky and smooth on the palate this is classically elegant.
The Guyot trained vines are planted at a high density with 3,500 vines per hectare. The vineyards are managed using organic fertilisers and without the use of herbicides or insecticides. Ploughing, pruning and green harvests all take place. The vineyard soils are made up of clay and limestone with large chalky pebbles.
