The Beaune vineyards are among the most extensive of the Côte. This "Village" appellation covers 410 hectares, 317 of which are classified as Premier Cru. The right to use the words "Premier Cru" is a distinction granted to certain climats whose wines are traditionally highly regarded. The plot "Les Marconnets" extends over 9.39 hectares.

Winemaking
The grapes were hand-picked and sorted manually as soon as they arrived at the winery. They were then pressed in a pneumatic press which allows for perfect extraction of the juices without over pressing the grapes. Vinification and ageing took place in wooden barrels with a proportion of 20% new oak.

Aromas of white flowers, fresh bread with spicy notes

Palate
Mellow, rich with an acidulous structure. A wine with an exceptional length!
