From a selection of parcels in Sécher, Chatains, Roncières and Mélinots. Harvested separately and fermented before blending. Bright, very zippy, lemon acidity, crisp, floral, and with nice weight. 50% oak but very subtle, with winemaker Olivier Bailly using 600-litre casks of at least five years’ age for the maturation of Sécher.
Barrel Sample:
93 Jasper Morris
This cuvée comes from almost all round Vaillons with the oldest vines being found in Séchets. Pale colour, a light stoniness backed by a little lemon and plum fruit, faintly lemon scented, a stony and steely central backbone, very typical of the vineyard, though the ripeness removes the most austere aspect of the finish.
Barrel Sample: 91-93
