Origins
On the lower slopes, ancient alluvial deposits, then in the middle of the hillsides, the clay-limestone soils are well drained thanks to a pebbly deposit of rock debris. Further up, we find Oxfordian marl (Jurassic), brown calcareous and brown calcareous soils. Iron oxide sometimes reddens the soil. Facing east and south. Altitude: between 250 and 330 metres.
The name "Chanière" is derived from an old Burgundy word “Châgne” ou old French “Chasne”, “Chêne” (a location where oaks grew). This single vineyard is mostly composed of clay and limestone. The soil is well drained thanks to the inclusion of rock debris.
Vinification and maturing
Vintage : 2022
The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.
Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.
A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds.
The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
