2023 VDF - Pet Nat
2023 VDF - Pet Nat
“Picked from the En Vaucurien parcel in the commune of Volnay, high up in the middle of pine forests. Really one of the best sites we have, with lots of broken limestone. The small stones give good drainage over the red clay. We started working there in 2018. It's cool climate, with great minerality: and makes very good pet nat.”
