1er cru

“A 1er cru full of delicacy and roundness, the quintessence of its exceptional terroir...”

“The bouquet is full-bodied and generous, blending notes of ripe citrus and apple flesh with soft hints of chamomile. On the palate, it is fresh and delicate, with lively acidity that highlights pink grapefruit, lemon verbena, and a clean, stony minerality. A slight saline note energizes the citrus oils and the subtle nuances that haven’t yet had time to fully unfold. Best enjoyed after another year or two in the bottle.” (Wine Enthusiast 2026)

Reasoned

Grape Harvest

Manuals

Wine Production

Whole grapes are pressed for 2 hours and 30 minutes in a pneumatic press; the juice is then transferred to a stainless-steel tank, where it settles at 12 degrees for one night, after which the must is transferred directly to barrels to undergo alcoholic fermentation.

Livestock Farming

Aged for 12 months in new barrels and partly in used barrels, then racked and aged for an additional 4 months in 68-hectoliter wooden vats, after which the remainder was racked into stainless steel tanks and lightly filtered before bottling

Eye

Golden color, silvery highlights, brilliant disk

Nose

Expressive, with subtle notes of peony and wax

Palate

Well-balanced; with age, the wine reveals greater body and richness and loses some of its citrus notes; it has a slightly mineral texture and is a delicate, appealing wine with a crisp finish

Rated estate (2021 guide): 3*Stars (High-quality production that serves as a benchmark in its sector)

About the estate:

Francine Picard, Michel’s daughter, is devoting all her considerable energy and idealism to reshaping the style of the wines produced by the family estate, which spans 140 hectares of vineyards. Since May 2019, she has been supported by Antoine Lepetit, a biodynamic consultant and her new technical director. The estate will be certified organic by the end of 2019, and changes are expected to continue, leading to even more precise winemaking and aging processes. A wide range of high-quality red and white wines offers a true glimpse into the different terroirs of the Chassagne and Saint-Aubin regions.
