All old-vine Melon de Bourgogne from 50-70 years old. The grapes are farmed biodynamically and hand-harvested. After pressing, the wine is fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged on the lees in glass-lined, underground tanks for 7-8 months before bottling and release.
Crushed oyster shells and oceanic salinity paint a picture on the nose that the palate builds upon, with crisp lemony citrus, green apple, and more savory, salty minerality. Its immense drinkability is only surpassed by its depth and terroir transparency. Year after year, this seemingly humble wine continues to be one of my all-time favorite white wines
