The vine
Plot /climat
Longbois
History
This plot is an enclave in the woods, located above the Champs Pimont.
Soil
Silty soil, very calcareous, shallow and stony.
Our plot(s)
30a 54ca, planted in 1987 and regrafted in 2000. Located at an altitude of 310 meters, the plot sits at the edge of the woods on the upper slopes. East / southeast exposure with a gentle slope.
The wine
Description
100% Chardonnay from handpicked grapes; vinified and raised in oak casks.
Taste
The altitude of the plot produces wines that are precise, taut, and mineral, with notes of citrus and fresh fruits. A few remaining Pinot Noir vines bring a certain roundness to the wine.
Serving temperature
12/14°C. It is recommended to decant recent vintages so as to enhance the aroma.
The vintage
- After a very cold winter the vegetation growth started quickly as from end of march. The 28th-29th frost had luckily not too much effect on our vines. They started to bloom beginning of june. Alternating cool and very hot spells in july and august made it difficult to decide the right tile for harvest. Finally we started on the 4th of September. Gold in colour the grapes were in perfect conditions ; the wines have a strong aroma and in the mouth, are well balanced, full and rich intasted.
