The Bourgogne Blanc is sourced mostly from two hectares in the “lieu dit” Champ Rond in the village of Chasselas, a village in the southern part of the Saint-Veran appellation. The soil is an unusual red limestone. It is an ideal soil for growing Chardonnay, rendering fresh and particularly aromatic wines that are both lively and fruity. The Bourgogne Blanc is vinified and matured for 6-8 months on its lees in stainless steel vats. No sulfur is used during the process, and only a minimal dose is added just before bottling.

Romuald Petit farms 7 hectares in the Maconnais and 5 hectares in Beaujolais. His Burgundy parcels are primarily in Saint-Verand with a small parcel in neighboring Pruzilly. The Beaujolais parcels are primarily in Morgon with smaller holdings in Chiroubles and Saint-Amour. Romuald’s parcels in the Maconnais are typically Burgundian, in that they differ with regards to their soils, rootstocks and the age of the vines. There are young vines (aged 5-15 years) planted by Romuald, and others that are over a hundred years old, planted just after the Phylloxera crisis. Because each parcel produces grapes with very different qualities, Romuald vinifies each separately, only assembling the wines (or not) before bottling. His aim is to create a wine that is both balanced and expressive. Romuald has always farmed without chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. In 2019, he officially began his conversion toward organic certification. All wines are harvested by hand and fermented with indigenous yeast.
