There was some early season frost risk that didn't do much damage but the ensuing attack of mildew was no joke as it caused quite a bit of damage. Otherwise, it was fairly easy to manage and we ultimately chose to begin picking essentially spotless fruit on the 11th of September and continued through to the 24th. Yields were perfectly good but certainly not high as they ranged from 50 to 60 hl\/ha. Potential alcohols were not especially high either at between 11.5 to 12.5% and those wines that came in at the lower levels of that range were lightly chaptalized. The acidities weren't high either, though they weren't low either as the post-malolactic pHs came in right at 3.35, which is perfectly okay if not what I would call ideal. Stylistically, I would describe them as basically classic and a blend of 2021 and 2022.\" Note that the house style is ultra-pure with no wood, and I can vouch from personal experience that the wines age extremely well.

It’s one of the largest contiguous parcels in Burgundy and is planted on a south\/southeast-facing slope. Its orientation and soils are very similar to some of the best Premier Cru vineyards. Now that the vines have reached the 45-year mark, the quality is rising. As the plants have aged, the fruit character has evolved to include a more definite mark of the chalky, limestone minerality for which Chablis is famous.
