Description
This terroir lies at an altitude of 270 m. Three parcels are combined to make this cuvée. The vines are located towards Chassagne, in the center of the village and towards Les Maranges. They are all gently sloping, facing east, on clay-marl soil where limestone outcrops in places. Domaine Lucien Muzard farms 3 hectares. The average age of the vines is over 60 years, pruned in cordon de royat. The soil is ploughed, the vines are disbudded, lifted, thinned out, aerated and harvested by hand. The grapes are never crushed, but mostly destemmed, with around 30% of the harvest whole. Alcoholic fermentation is carried out with indigenous yeasts. The wine is lightly pigmented during vatting. After 15 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. Part of the cuvée is also aged in vats. Aged for 12 months.
