Organic. As always, this was drawn from mature, 35- to 40-year-old vines rooted entirely in the limestone soils of Chavignol. The multiple sites are largely sloping vineyards on the lower flanks of the Chavignol hillside terroirs of Les Chasseignes, Les Longues Fins and La Rue de Vaux. Importantly, Boulay also includes fruit from his younger vines growing on the great hillsides of Clos de Beaujeu, Monts Damnés and La Grande Côte. The juice was naturally fermented and aged for nine months in tank on lees, with a small volume also fermented in a single large wooden cask.

Aromatics: Notes of rose, eucalyptus and menthol. Palate: Muscat and Gewurztraminer create a lively palate, savoury and textural with delicious fresh grapes flavours and beautiful length. This is a delicious orange wine with soft tannins and playful yet complex palate. An incredible result with only so few vintage with this cuvee.
