Production Method
Biodynamic/organic viticulture; ~30‑day skin maceration, frequent use of whole‑cluster fermentation, aged in older used oak and vats to preserve freshness; minimal sulfur addition.

Vineyard Info
Produced by Yann Durieux (Recrue des Sens), a small biodynamic/minimal‑intervention grower near Nuits‑Saint‑Georges who worked previously at Prieuré‑Roch. Focus on low‑input Pinot Noir from old vines.
