Description
Le Clos, facing east, backs onto Chassagne and rests on the foothills of the hillside, on marl-limestone soil of great repute. The domaine cultivates 42 ares of vines planted in 1989. It is pruned to Guyot simple. The soil is worked with various ploughs. The vines are disbudded and leaf-thinned on the sunrise side, by hand, to accustom the bunches to the sun and aerate the vegetation. Harvesting is done by hand. The grapes are never crushed, but mostly de-stemmed (around 30% whole harvest). 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% of which are new. Aged for 12 months.
