| Winery | The Chardonnay vines are planted on a north-facing slope of the ‘Le Vieux Puits’ single vineyard in the Maconnais appellation. The vineyard is situated at an elevation of 200 metres and is tucked away with lovely exposure, which helps promote the grapes' ripening. The soils are rich in limestone, which is generally alkaline, and produce bright, crisp wines with renowned elegance and expressive aromatics. The vines are pruned according to the simple Guyot method, which produces a balanced yield, with green harvesting taking place to keep yields low and concentrate the flavours in the grapes. The vineyard is ploughed mechanically, and every other row is left with grass cover to encourage biodiversity. The vines are cultivated using copper and sulphur treatments and are harvested at optimum maturity. |
