Aromatically located between "Les Grands Ponts" and "Les Ponts", the "Les 1er Ponts" cuvée comes from a plot located on the Mont de l'Abbaye de la Saint Vivant. It is an elegant Pinot Noir aged 24 months in barrels.

Limited to 2 bottles per person

Cuvée from the Les Boutières plot, very close to Savigny-Les-Beaune. This is a plot of 50-year-old vines which enjoys excellent southern exposure and is located 300 meters above sea level. The soil is clay over limestone.

The juice macerated on the skins for 30 long days. It was then aged in older oak barrels that had seen several wines over the years as well as in vats to preserve its freshness. The result is a fresh, elegant wine of great complexity.

"As all barrels must be new one day, I aged some of the 1st Bridges in new barrels. I have forbidden myself to introduce them into the 1st Bridges. They will need more bottle aging in order to regain their balance. natural. I had no vocation to make 1er Ponts in new barrels but when you are a "Tête de Ponts" you dare everything." Yann Durieux

Petite parcelle localisée sur un léger coteau parallèle à la côte produisant environ deux pièces chaque année. Ce Pinot Noir plus riche et plus profond mérite ses lettres de Grand. Elevage 24 mois en fût.

Magnificent plot on the Côte de Nuits... from a famous village with 9 grands crus... its initials are GC.
