A wonderfully structured, brooding yet perfumed Monthelie. Sourced from 3 parcels of 40-50yr old Pinot vines, planted on fractured limestone soils, facing SE. Pascal calls this wine 'Une Petit Volnay' and rightly so, as all 3 parcels border the Volnay 1er cru vineyard of Sous La Vielle. After de-stemming and sorting twice, the grapes are fermented in tank before ageing in 20% new and 80% 1 and 2 year old barrels for 12 months. His yields are low - around 40HL/Ha for this wine
