L’Arbre Blanc

Frédéric Gounan founded the estate in Saint-Sandoux and initially planted 1.1 hectares of Pinot Noir on basalt from 2000 onwards. Later, around 0.5 hectares of Sauvignon and Pinot Gris were added. The vineyards cover approximately 1.6 to 2 hectares and are worked manually, using Lyre training, and farmed organically and biodynamically; a horse is used in some areas. In the cellar, the estate works with spontaneous fermentation, long ageing and as little intervention as possible. In 2023, the estate was handed over to Julie and Jacob Ottosen von Rosen.
