In 1986, Justin's grandfather planted vines on this steep hill, a rare site in Burgundy. The hill is terraced and divided into six small plots. The terroir is perfect for Chardonnay. The soil is thin and covered with limestone marl; the nearby forests create a refreshing microclimate. Because it is terraced, the southwest-facing effect is stronger, giving the wine structure and concentration. Downhill, the soil is clayier, suitable for red wines from a village AOC.

The vines are 35 years old, and the grapes are harvested entirely by hand. The grapes are pressed immediately upon arrival at the winery. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 10 degrees Celsius. Only natural yeasts are used. The wine is aged for 12 months in French oak barrels, 15 percent of which are new.

Justin allows the vineyard to run as it pleases, intervening only when necessary. Although not certified organic, they do employ some biodynamic practices that align with those used by Justin's grandparents and ancestors.\n\n\n \nThe grapes are harvested entirely by hand and taken directly to the winery. Here, the grapes are completely destemmed and undergo a five-day cold maceration in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. This allows the fruit flavors to fully develop.
