Hand-picked and hand-sorted Chardonnay from four estate vineyards located on the hill of Fretille in Pernand. Directly upon harvest, the fruit was pressed and the must allowed to settle briefly before transfer to a variety of vessels for fermentation. Half of the juice flowed by gravity into oak barrels (10% new), one quarter went into stainless steel vat and one quarter into concrete egg. Aged 10 months before bottling. Clementine's notes on the wine are, "The color of sun-ripe straw with fresh citrus fruits on the nose and impressions of white flowers. Silex minerality on the palate with a lovely roundness and nice long finish. I am very pleased."
