    Born in the plains between Santenay and the Maranges vineyard, this Pinot Noir comes from several different plots of land with almost identical terroir. None of them was historically exploited and therefore none of them has been recognised as a climate by the UNESCO in 2015, despite the fact that they are excellent terroirs for vines! The soil is clay with limestone gravels and pebbles which ensure water drainage. Exposed south-east or south-west depending on the relief, it is a simple and effective wine: aromas of red fruits, supple, lively and elegant.
