Cultivating typical Burgundian grape varieties on clay-limestone soils, winemaker Thierry produces authentic single-varietal terroir wines that perfectly express the essence of Burgundy. The Chiroubles, grown at high altitude, offers a rich, complex, and feminine wine that is both intense and aromatic. A must-try for lovers of wines with character.
