Grape: 100% Melon de Bourgogne

Jean-Baptiste refined his winemaking education under the instruction of Meursault master Jean-Marc Roulot, before taking over a portion of his family's estate planted in primarily Melon de Bourgogne. Practicing organic with biodynamic principles, his wines are pressed at low pressure and aged on the lees for 12 months in glass lined underground tanks and bottled without fining or filtering. His two cuvées show remarkable textural richness, as well as detailed, stony minerality; with single-plot bottlings expressing the region's unique 'gabbro' (black granite) soils from different perspectives.

'Fief de Chaintre', from a north-facing site, is taut and saline with bright apple, citrus, and earthy notes.
