TERROIRS
We are fortunate to have 3 parcels in Nantoux (En Bignon, Le Clou and another towards the Montagne de Cras) of very old Gamay vines. This other red grape variety of Burgundy is still too little known for its ability to create great wines. We are a few pioneers in Burgundianto produces this Gamay wine in the «Burgundian style» with the same care as Pinot Noir. VITICULTURE Traditionnal low vineyard with 10 000 vines/ha, Guyot cane pruning
WINEMAKING Hand harvest at optimum ripeness. Very small yield. Winemaking : start of carbonic fermentation maceration, careful extraction, 50% of whole cluster, wooden fermenters. Barrel aging: 12 months in average with old oak and vat.
