-
The Fourchaume vineyard stretches over an uninterrupted 3 km, with the exception of an enclave on one of the Grand Cru slopes. This wine comes from this very enclave, which is known as “Vaulorent”. All the factors comes together here to make a fine wine: a pure nose and a voluptuous palate with the rich aromas of butter and caramel.
