The grapes come from two plots within the Volnay appellation. The hillside slopes are around a 2% gradient and face south which benefits from the afternoon sun which encourages ripening. The old vines are gown in complex, stony deep clay and limestone soils and are densely planted. Cultivated according to the traditional methods, they are maintained with a large and aerated canopy for sun protection in the warmer vintages of late. They are sustainably farmed with practices such as using fresh compost from local farms to nourish the vines. General treatments include copper and sulphur, and mechanical ploughing takes place to maintain the vineyard soils. Hand-harvested at optimum maturity.
