Description
This terroir lies at an altitude of 300m. Situated at the top of the hillside, on poor soil, Clos Faubard faces south-east. Limestone is more prevalent in this area. The estate cultivates 1.83 hectares in this climat, and the vines are cordon de royat pruned, with an average age of 50 years. The soil is ploughed, the vines de-budded, lifted, thinned out, aerated and harvested by hand. The grapes are never crushed, but mostly destemmed (around 30% of the whole crop). Alcoholic fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts. The wine is lightly pigmented during vatting. After 18 to 20 days, the wines are devatted and blended with free-run and press wine for ageing in Burgundy barrels, 15 to 20% of which are new. Aged for 12 months.
