Vineyards & Viticulture
Purchased this 0.78 hectare parcel (planted in 1946) in 2003. Located next to the chateau. 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. Organic vineyard management since 2003.
