Grapes: 100% Jacquère

Average Vine Age: 100 years old

Altitude: 1,150 to 1,315 feet (350-400m)

Soils/Terroir: A 1ha plot with a northeast exposition. The soil is white limestone scree over a bed of clay-limestone (argilo-calcaire).

Farming: Organic

Harvest: Hand harvested

Yield: 35 hl/ha

Winemaking: Direct pressing of the whole bunches using an old Coquard press (widely used in Champagne for the quality of extraction) that Matthieu inherited from his grandfather. The juice is transferred by gravity to used oak barrels of multiple sizes (6-39hl). Fermentation begins spontaneously using only the naturally occurring indigenous yeasts, and the wine goes through full malolactic fermentation.

Maturation: Aged for 24 months in used oak barrels of multiple sizes (6-39hl). The wine is racked once, 1-2 months before bottling, and a low dose of sulphur is added at that time. Bottled directly from barrel without fining or filtration.
