Producer Information

The domain has been owned by the Michelot family for 6 generations. The domain is now more than 19 hectares, including a number of prestigious 1er cru wines. Michelot consciously chooses to limit anti-disease treatments of the vines. They prefer a carefully planned program of plowing to keep the soil healthy. The harvest in the vineyards is done by manual selection of the best grapes. In order to maintain their independence as growers and winemakers, they are also not part of an organized system of organic viticulture.
The vines are planted on a soil of lime, clay and gravel. This monopoly is bounded by walls. The vines are located to the south, southeast and the vineyard has an area of ​​0.82ha
The grape bunches are lightly crushed, followed by a cold skin soak of 6-12 hours. Alcoholic fermentation in wooden barrels, followed by 100% malolactic fermentation. Maturation in wooden barriques (15% new wood) for 10-12 months. After this, a further 5-6 months maturation "sur lie" for a guaranteed perfect balance.
