Winemaking notes
This remarkable edifice reflects the intention of Chanson to do their utmost to preserve winemaking traditions, allowing wines of the purest spirit to be made. Respecting the vine at every stage of the winemaking process, as it allows for the most precise expression of terroir possible. Practices such as plot selection, yield control and short pruning are followed by hand harvesting and sorting, then whole bunch maceration for the reds.
Viticultural notes
This vineyard is located at the border of the Premier Cru vineyards of this little village, nested between between Volnay and Meursault and is composed of clay and limestone soils.
Tasting notes
Bright ruby colour. Intense aromas of ripe red berries (cherry) and spices on a hint of vanilla. Well-balanced and well-structured. Complex with a tight texture. Subtle oak note and well-integrated tannins. Long and spicy aftertaste.
Pairing notes
Roast chicken, dishes with morels and other wild mushrooms or mushroom risotto.
