About the wine:
A cuvée sourced from three vineyards located in the commune of Comblanchien. Twenty percent of the grapes were vinified as whole clusters.

About the estate:
The estate is located in Premeaux-Prissey, the village with two churches: one in Premeaux and one in Prissey. Jean-Pierre Truchetet settled here in 1980 with his wife Sylvie and cultivates 5.3 hectares. The sixth generation—the winemaker’s two children, Morgan and Julie—took over the estate (currently in the process of converting to organic farming) in 2019 and established a wine merchant operation to expand their product line.

About the estate:
In January 2019, Morgan Truchetet and his sister Julie took over the family estate, which consists of just over five hectares, along with a small wine-trading business under the name Morgan Truchetet that purchases grapes directly from the vineyards. From the very beginning, Julie and Morgan—who studied viticulture and oenology at the Beaune wine school—enjoyed their father’s complete trust, and he gave them full freedom in managing the vineyards and winemaking. Every effort is made here to preserve the integrity of the grapes: after passing over a vibrating table, the grapes are destemmed for a pre-fermentation maceration at 11–12°C for a few days; the temperature of alcoholic fermentation is controlled, with three to four punch-downs and two to three pump-overs per cuvée. All work is carried out by gravity, from transfer to tanks to transfer to barrels, with new barrels limited to 20%. Private customers, who are welcome at the winery, will be charmed by the cheerful disposition of these two young winemakers and the aromatic purity of their finest Pinot Noirs, a grape variety that accounts for 80% of the estate’s production. The organic farming certification, which was initiated in March 2020, immediately reveals the estate’s lofty ambitions.
