Description
Vineyard notes: "Terroir: Kimmeridgian. A perfect balance between limestone and clay, over marl with oyster fossils. Moderately deep soil, southern exposure, very steep slope."
Producer Notes
Located halfway up the slope in the heart of the appellation, the Domaine’s vineyards benefit from southern exposure and enjoy optimum sunshine. This results in wines with great power and complexity. When the monks of Pontigny began growing the first vines in this extraordinary place they were certainly not mistaken.
