Vineyard notes: "CHARMES CHAMBERTIN Grand Cru The Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru lies between the village of Morey-Saint-Denis to the south and Gevrey-Chambertin to the north. The plot lies east of the Grand Cru wine route, at the bottom of the hillside, where the slope is slight (3%). The plot ranges in altitude from 261 to 280 meters. The lieu-dit faces east-southeast. The soil changes from east to west. In the eastern part, the soil is 20 to 50 cm thick, and stony, with angular-to-blunt, fine-grained white Comblanchien limestone fragments. In the western part of the plot, the reddish-brown soil is of a similar thickness, with blunt crinoidal limestone fragments (calcaire à Entroques). Two types of substratum underlie the Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru. The compact Comblanchien limestone in the eastern part of the plot is in contact with crinoidal limestone (calcaire à Entroques) in the western part, indicating the presence of a fault underlying this Grand Cru."

- Winemaking
-
Our grapes are vinified with little or no destemming, depending on the nature of the vintage. Only indigenous yeasts are used to preserve the authentic origin of the wines. Fermentation lasts about two weeks with some light punching down at the start, then pumping over for a smoother extraction towards the end of fermentation. The main concern is the balance between firmness and suppleness for the tannins. After being lightly pressed in a pneumatic press, the wines are transferred to the cellar by gravity.

- Ageing
-
The wines will spend 14 to 18 months in oak barrels. We buy the wood two years in advance to guarantee sufficient drying time for the quality of our barrels. Elevage plays a key role in refining the tannins, which is why we use a significant proportion of new wood.
