The vines are grown in various, carefully selected plots in the Côte Chalonnaise and the Côte de Beaune. The vines benefit from a cool, continental climate, where warm sunny days during the ripening period are tempered by cool nights, which impart a natural balancing acidity to the grapes. The soils vary and offer subtle nuances from each terroir in the resulting blend. The vines are densely planted at 10,000 per hectare and cultivated using traditional methods with a large and aerated canopy. They are sustainably farmed with practices such as using fresh compost from local farms to nourish the vines. General treatments include copper and sulphur, and mechanical ploughing occurs to maintain the vineyard soils. Once the grapes have reached optimum maturity, they are hand-harvested.
