Description
This is a step up from the impressive inaugural 2021 vintage. The viticultural team have been able to adapt and improve the vineyard towards biodynamics – and the domaine’s expectations. This is a big plot at just over 3.5 hectares. The team have pruned shorter, and the wine has the seductive richness of Morgeot with more focus and tension.
