Marsannay 

Les Genelières

In the vines

Grapes are from two plots of old vines on the hillside northeast of the village of Couchey. Established on limestones of Prémeaux and Ladoix.

It is a very draining terroir, with an average depth.

Viticulture

Taille Guyot Poussard and cordon de Royat, mechanical plowing and 100% organic fertilizers.

We use organic products, and we maximize manual labor: disbudding, trimming, leaf stripping, green harvesting.

Harvest

Manual harvest in 20 kg boxes with a first sorting at the vineyard.

In the glass

This is our Marsannay that shows the most character in its structure.

Lots of depth and complexity for this vintage.

Vinification

2nd sorting at domaine.

60% destemmed and 40% whole cluster.

Natural yeasts, moderate punching down and pumping over.
