Origins

The vineyards of Vosne-Romanée, just to the north of the town of Nuits-Saint-Georges, cover an area of 165 hectares.

Vosne-Romanée is the appellation to the south of the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, whose grands crus include the most fabulous and famous of wines: Romanée Conti, La Tâche, Romanée Saint-Vivant… It is probably in this Burgundian village that Pinot Noir fully expresses its most beautiful attributes.

- Limestone mixed with clayey marl.
- South-east and east facing.
- Gentle slope at the bottom of the hillside, more pronounced above the Premier and Grand Crus.
- Altitude between 260 and 330 metres.

Vinification and maturing

Hand-picked, the grapes are first sorted in the vineyard and then in the winery. The grapes are then destemmed and crushed before being put into thermo-regulated vats. Vatting lasts 20-25 days. Vinification begins with cold maceration (8°-10°C) for 5-6 days, followed by fermentation with the introduction of Burgundy yeasts, with daily pumping over and punching down of the cap. The wine is aged for 12-15 months in barrels (30% new oak).
