The 0,37 ha vineyard site lies on a plateau of fine clay over white Turonian chalk tuff. The approximately 40-year-old vines are hand-harvested, fully destemmed and fermented with native yeasts without sulphur. The wine matures for twelve months in used Burgundy barrels, followed by 24 months of bottle ageing. The cool vintage is slender yet structured, with fine tannins as well as mentholated, spicy and chalky-mineral notes. The grapes were harvested at night so that fermentation could begin at a low temperature.
