Vineyards & Viticulture
Grapes are from the village of Chouilly. The vines were planted in 1964. The vineyards are worked in part by plough and then the ground is covered with bark in order to stop erosion and prevent weeds from sprouting. Herbicides are avoided at all costs. This cuvée is named after Stephane’s daughter.
Soils
Limestone
Harvest & Vinification
Grapes are slowly pressed, and the wine undergoes malolactic and ages in stainless steel tanks. Dosage 5 g/l. Reserve wines are not used to adjust the blend of the non vintage wines, therefore all are from a single vintage but not marked as such since they do not rest on lees for the three-year mandatory minimum period.
