The Story

Our parcel of Bonnes Mares  is a narrow strip of vineyard lying along the top of the slope and covering 0.36 Ha (0.89 acres). Half the vines were planted in 1988, the other half date from 1961 and 1980. Annual production varies between 900 and 1500 bottles.

The Bonnes Mares appellation sits astride the village communes of Chambolle-Musigny and Morey-Saint-Denis, it therefore presents characteristics intermediate to both appellations. The in...

His parcel is in middle of the vineyard, on a mix of terres rouges and blanches. It's a small parcel so was assembled from the start. Fred thinks that in each climat the magic is to have big diversity which makes the wine complex, rich and well balanced. Separating the soils seems erroneous to him. He has quite young vines in half of his parcels, about 30 years old, and he thinks that’s when they start to really produce quality.
