Pale lemon colour. Maimbey still has a light reduction but less than Monts de Fussey. The wide spaced vines are approaching 50 years old, and give a little more density through the middle of the palate. Ripe apples, adequate acidity, and very good length. Quality! Drink from 2027-2029. Tasted Oct 2025.

The lieu-dit “Mainbey” is located on the other side of the small valley that separates it from the village of Fussey, at a high altitude of 470 meters. It is the biggest lieu-dit of the domaine, divided into three Chardonnay parcels and one Aligoté parcel. All of the Chardonnay parcels are in good health with modest vigor. The farming is more or less identical to the Chardonnay on “Les Monts de Fussey. 
  • Terroir: On the slope of a valley adjacent to the village of Fussey, at 470m altitude. Very stony soils with big blocks of limestone.
  • Viticulture (domaine): Organic with biodynamic methods and phytotherapy (see domaine profile for full details).
