The historic enclosure extends over 5 hectares, protected by the surrounding walls of the former Capuchin convent. It was mentioned as early as 890, the year in which Empress Richard donated it to the Abbey of Etival, which in turn detached part of it for the benefit of the Capuchin monks at the beginning of the 17th century.
The Clos is located at the bottom of a slope, well protected from the winds by the surrounding hills. Its soils are sandy-silty on gravel and granite pebbles. This terroir benefits from rapid soil warming thanks to the pebbles on its surface. It produces wines that mature slightly earlier than other terroirs.
Food Pairing: Pork, charcuterie and foie gras, aperitif , seafood and chicken dishes.
