Just under one hectare (!) in size, this is the second smallest of the single vineyards and my favourite in 2020. Compressed, actually reductive on the nose, but slowly opens to reveal a tense, nutty richness with that struck match perfume. The palate is silken with a sappy, sherbet freshness, a fine line of acidity and beautiful length. Very, very good. Corney & Barrow Score 18.5
A plot of 1 hectare, with plenty of flint in the soil here on the plateau, facing north. From 50+ year old vines with small bunches. Slightly paler in colour and there is indeed a smokiness to the nose, with a chiselled feel. Fresh apples too. An interesting wine – could I confuse it with Montagny? A slight marine note to finish. 89 Points. Jasper Morris. Inside Burgundy
