Information

The lieu-dit Les Lurets consists of both 1er Cru and Village-designated parts, and this wine is produced from the 1er Cru section. It borders the 1er Cru Les Cailleret and is located south of Chassorney’s other 1er Cru, Le Ronceret, with Les Aussy (also a 1er Cru) lying between them. Although its elevation is almost the same as Le Ronceret’s, the character of the wine differs. The wine has a fine, silky texture and is softer and more transparent than Le Ronceret. It is enjoyable to drink now, but with a few years of aging, it is expected to develop a more airy character while retaining a dense core. The grapes come from a small plot of less than 0.3 hectares planted with 65-year-old vieille vigne.

Like Saint Romain Sous Roche, it undergoes 100% whole-cluster fermentation with semi-carbonic maceration in a stainless steel tank. Unlike Frédéric Cossard, the aging process has been changed from egg tanks and qvevris (used from 2018 to 2021) back to old barrels. It has become a supreme, authentic Burgundy, combining intensity and softness. It is enjoyable now, but it is clear that it will also age well over time.
