N° 1 bottle Macon Village N° 1 bottle Mâcon - Milly-Lamartine N° 1 bottle Virè-Clessè

This Bourgogne is produced from two parcels : one is located between Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet, the other one between Meursault and Volnay. The first one gives minerality and texture to the cuvée whereas the second one gives more fat and richness.

The particularity of the Domaine's wines are their long 'sur lie' ageing periods: the Chablis Vielles Vignes remain in contact with fine yeasts for 2 years, the Premiers Crus and Grands Crus for up to 6 years, which rank among the greatest Chablis collectibles.
