100% Mondeuse
Practicing biodynamic and organic.
From 80-year-old vines on a hillside vineyard with with steep slopes (up to 75%) in the area of Puttets which was historically known for the quality of its Mondeuse. The vineyard gets a full southern exposition at an altitude of 450 meters which means the air is cool in spite of the exposition. The soils are the same as the rest of the commune: friable schistic limestone. 2017 vintage went through 15-day semi carbonic maceration until a native fermentation took place at around 25 degrees. The wine was then put into 10-year-old 650 liter barrels for a malolactic fermentation and ageing for 10 months. Bottled with 2 grams of SO2. No fining or filtration. 83 cs produced. Vegan
