“2008 was an incredibly complicated vintage. On September 10 I didn’t think I would have a harvest. There was no spring, no summer and most of our vines were violently damaged by hail.

The wines were also complicated and surprising while maturing in barrel: the malolactic fermentation was very long.

However, the wines have a nice structure. The whites are rich with citrus aromas and a good length. The reds are very characteristics of Pinot Noir with aromas of red currant and discreet tannins.” Thierry Matrot.

« 2007 is a classic vintage as I like. The cool September weather gave good levels of tartaric acidity with aromas of ripe fruit.  

The wines have a good structure and their finishes are very pure. You can wait six to eight years for the top crus, or you can drink them young with Mediterranean cuisines based on tomato, herbs and vegetables, or with curries-dynamic cuisines that need invigorating wines.”  Thierry Matrot.
