Terroir:
The vineyards lie on the upper slopes west of Vosne-Romanée, where cooler nights and limestone-rich soils lend precision and minerality. The altitude of the Hautes-Côtes slows ripening, allowing grapes to retain bright acidity while developing nuanced aromatics. This balance between sunlit days and brisk evenings defines the cuvée’s elegant style.
