The Story
Most of Anne’s Pinot Noir vines in this exemplary lieu-dit were planted in 1905. A breathtakingly profound grand cru; a lithe, silky wrap conceals a deeply concentrated core.
Anne Gros cares for her vineyards according to “lutte raisonée” principles, adhering to organic practices as much as possible depending on the conditions of the growing year. Grapes are always harvested by hand. Juice is fermented on indigenous yeasts in lined (enameled) cement tanks for the reds, and in stainless steel tanks for the whites. Wines are aged in barrel for approximately 16 months, with 80 percent new oak for grand cru wines, 50 percent for village wines and 30 percent for regional wines.
