Les Mitans is situated towards the center of the appellation and is a classic Volnay wine with breed and finesse supported by a sturdy backbone. The Bitouzets have allotted the entire production (three barrels) to the US market, as Bitouzet only has a 0.13-hectare sliver of vines that were planted in 1991 in the En l’Ormeau section of Les Mitans. Firm and dark in fruit character, it offers a lurking mineral-driven power and a counterbalancing floral element.
