This cuvée comes from a plot adjacent to Puligny-Montrachet, benefiting from meticulous winemaking. After a gentle harvest, the grapes are pressed directly, and fermentation proceeds naturally thanks to indigenous yeasts. Six months of aging on the lees in tanks enhances the wine's complexity. Clarity and purity are preserved through the absence of fining and minimal filtration.

Domaine Derain
Before "natural" became a buzzword in Burgundy, Derain was already practicing it. The style is serene: gentle Pinot Noirs, tranquil Chardonnays, discreet oak aging. No abrupt gestures. The wines unfold in the glass with an almost meditative restraint. Short sentences: they whisper. And that's precisely what makes them beautiful.
