Winemaker: Eric Rémy

Terroir / Soil: Calcareous clay with mixed percentages of clay and limestone. The Premier Cru site of Clavoillon sits just a stone's throw east of the famed Grand Cru vineyards on the Hill of Corton.

Vinification: Manual harvesting. Long, gentle pneumatic pressing, “débourbage,” or “settling of the juice,” over 24 hours; then racking and running the must into cask. Alcoholic fermentation in oak casks, 22% new (maximum 1/3 Vosges, minimum 2/3 allier).
