Facing south, south-west, on a gentle, draining slope, this climat looks southwards and extends Corton Charlemagne along the road leading to Pernand-Vergelesses. The clays are red, giving the Pinot Noir an assertive tannic structure. The many pebbles aerate the soil and certainly add finesse to the mid-palate. The Chardonnay expresses itself very well with the white cuvée of the same name. A wine for laying down, with a powerful texture when young.
Vinification
FermentationThe grapes are harvested by hand and placed in small crates to prevent the bunches from settling. For our red wines, the grapes are taken to the winery, passed through a sorting table and destemmed before being loaded into the vinification tank. Immediately, we proceed to a so-called “pre-fermentation cold maceration” which, by cooling the tank to 10°C, optimizes the extraction of the natural aromas of the grapes and oxygenates the musts. We favor long vatting times with daily punching down for 8 to 10 days to facilitate the extraction of tannins and colors. Finally, the final maceration lasts 3 to 5 days during which the must macerates gently at a controlled temperature to gain finesse and aroma.
