Planted 1926. On top of a small quarry. Limestone and a more feminine style of Bonnes Mares. 0.29 ha. Very small yield. ‘I used an old plastic tank. Quite cold maceration at first. Cool, long fermentation’, says winemaker Benoît Stehly.
Glowing red/ruby. Very floral – roses? Very different from most Bonnes Mares. Light and lifted. In 2016 with a salty end. Marked acidity and relatively light-bodied. So unusual. Dry finish.
