Certified organic since 2006, the estate spans around twenty hectares and stands out for its respectful approach to the terroir, ranking its cuvées among the region's essential benchmarks.

The Vineyard

This Bourgogne Hautes-Côtes de Nuits comes from a very small plot of around 0.5 hectares located at altitude, in the commune of Chevannes.
