Vineyards & Viticulture
From a 0.75 hectare vineyard planted in 1950. It has a sharp incline and many stones. Old vine Pinot Fin that generates very low yields and naturally concentrated berries. All selection massale, using their best Pinot Fin to replant. The vineyards are tended like a garden, with horse plowing, biodynamic teas prepared in-house, and no trimming of the canopy. Acquired this parcel in 2009.
