This wine from a terroir neighbouring Santenots is a beautiful expression of the Pinot Noir grape. Thanks to the elegance and the purity of its fruit, it can be served alongside certain types of fish such as pikeperch and monkfish and goes well with poultry and grilled meat.

Other text A wine must be the reflection of its terroir and its vintage. The first step in preserving all of the different characteristics of my wines is to carry out careful and attentive work in the vineyards. We grow the vines with the greatest respect for the soils using organic manure and ploughing them. Rigorous pruning and disbudding in the spring help to control the yields. We exercise extreme care as regards barrel hygiene and temperature control during fermentation. We enjoy long and uneventful fermentations for eight to ten weeks. It is only thanks to the rigorous work carried out in the vineyards and in the cellars that my wines preserve their unique character.
