The vines grow in Peney near Geneva; the estate identifies the site of its Aligoté there but provides no more specific soil information for this vineyard site. Vinification takes place partly in concrete dolia. The organic components remain constantly suspended, giving the wine greater smoothness. In the glass it is pale yellow with greenish reflections. The nose initially recalls freshly cut hay, followed by citrus fruit and wet stone. On the palate it is dry, straight and intense, with a mineral opening and precise, varietally typical aromas. The grape variety originally comes from Burgundy and has been grown in Geneva since 1917.
