This is a blend of two parcels, Clardy and Rosette. The first one is composed of soils of white marls over hard limestone, the second one shows young 17-year-old vines planted on Kimmeridgian-era clay-limestone soils, over one hectare. The estate is certified biodynamic. Hand-picked, late harvested grapes. Natural vinification: long fermentation in barrels on fine lees without bâtonnage. Matured in old 225-litre barrels. Just a microdose of sulphur at bottling. A stunning wine from an iconic and highly sought after producer.

Notes on the producer

Alice and Olivier are well known for their pure, natural wines that they craft from small plots in Chablis, Chitry and the little known Saint Bris appellation. They have been tending their organic vines near their village of Courgis forover twentyyears now. Courgis lies north west of Dijon so it is quite a cold area leading to low yields from the vines. Both Alice and Olivier share the winemaking as they work together to craft these stunning wines. Some true stars of Chablis.
