Situated in the north of Burgundy, in the department of Yonne, the appellation covers some twenty communes bordering the pretty Serein valley. Its vineyards benefit from an exceptional and much-envied geological location.
The roots draw all their resources from the predominantly clay-limestone soil dating from the Jurassic period, more precisely the Kimmeridgian (150 million years ago). Today you can still find shells, remnants of a time when the sea completely covered this area.
This organic wine, full of finesse and elegance, is a tribute to Mademoiselle Victoire, the founder of J. MOREAU & Fils.
This cuvée comes from organically-farmed vines in the commune of La Chapelle Vaupelteigne, whose soils provide an ideal water reserve for the vines, with a rich microbial life; the grapes ripen optimally here.
- Slow pressing with juice separation,
