Vineyard Notes: From 2 ha of vines in the Moque-Panier, Soillats, Boucheran, Vaux-de-Coureau, and Vauvillien lieux-dits, all on northwest-facing slopes on the back sides of Chablis' 1er cru slopes.

The Guyot trained vines were planted between 1994 and 2014 at 5,800 and 8,300 vines per hectare.

Winemaking Notes: The wine ferments with selected yeasts in stainless steel tanks. It spends 12 months on the lees and malolactic fermentation takes place spontaneously.

Tasting Notes: The Cuvée Saint Pierre usually produce less concentrated fruit than those of the estate's premier cru offerings, but the high percent- age of limestone in the soil here gives a wine that speaks clearly of its Chablisien origins. A classic Chablis nose rich in mineral with a waft of hazelnut in the bouquet; grapefruit, orange, and stone on the palate; nice weight and balance; precise and clean.
