Description
Terroir
A blend from various plots, notably Les Bruyères and La Mailloche, on Keuper iridescent marl soils. Vineyard predominantly south-east facing.
Vinification and Ageing
Manual and mechanical harvest.
The Poulsard ferments during an eight-day maceration in temperature-controlled tanks, before being transferred into large wooden tuns in our cool, 13th century cellars.

From eight to ten years.
Wine and Food Pairing
Ideal with starters, cured meats, smoked Morteau sausages, grilled meats, poultry dishes, Raclette and cheeses generally, but also with any fish dishes or exotic cuisine.
