Extra-BrutPremier Cru
Old vines vintage
To be more precise on the origin of our “lieux dits”, the name of this cuvée is ” Monts de Vertus”. It is made solely from Chardonnay grapes, from our own plots, all over fifty years old located on mid-slopes, growing on pure chalk soils perfect for a long maturation. The style is very neat, mineral and saline.
