Description

Arthur recently acquired a hectare of unplanted land previously fallow for a decade. There is around 10% Pinot Blanc in the blend, bringing floral complexity. This is a cool sector at the top of the slope above Teurons which works well for whites. The wine is characterful with lifted fruit and rose notes, fresh but also with a creamy, nutty finish.

The Thiberts bought a cleared plot of one hectare in 2019, and immediately planted it up with Chardonnay (and a little pinot blanc). Don’t be fooled by the Rouge in the name – the vineyard is called Montée Rouge whatever is planted. Mid lemon yellow, a neutral but attractive nose, shows the oak a little, pleasing white fruit. It could well be an interesting site with more vine age and already quite a good length. And some minerals.Drink 2025 - 2027Jasper Morris MW, insideburgundy_com (December 2023)
