Fermented and aged in foudres and barriques, 20% new oak. A Chardonnay from Morey St.-Denis is a rare thing, the vast majority of the commune being planted with Pinot Noir, but it can be exceptional, as this regularly is. A vineyard located just above Bonnes-Mares, En la Rue de Vergy is planted on poor, rocky limestone soils. Open-knit citrus and stone fruit with a distinct chalkiness. Intense and complex but not a heavy white Côte de Nuits as some can be, very well balanced, distinctive and moreish.
