The estate is eight hectares across 42 parcels of sandy loam and calcareous marl on gently rolling hills at 150 metres, ploughed by horse, planted with grasses between the rows and certified organic in 2013; this cuvee draws on five Vrigny Premier Cru parcels, hand-harvested, the Chardonnay pruned by the Chablis method. The grapes were pressed in a pneumatic press and settled at length, fermented in stainless steel on indigenous yeasts using a pied de cuve, put through malolactic conversion, bottled the following April and aged five years on its lees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFood and drinking\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eServe at 8–10°C.
