The Les Chenevottes vineyard site lies on the eastern edge of Chassagne-Montrachet, near Puligny-Montrachet; the site is described as having calcareous marl, clay, and calcareous scree and gravel. The grapes are slowly and gently pressed as whole bunches. The must ferments without added yeasts in 350-litre casks, around 30 per cent of them new, and matures for 15 to 20 months without bâtonnage. The 2023 shows a slightly reductive nose with crisp orchard fruit, white flowers, toasted almonds and smoke. On the palate, it is medium- to full-bodied, silky, fresh and precise, with subtle oak support and a long finish.
