Importer notes from Atherton Wine Imports:

"This has been a very exciting domaine to watch over the last couple of decades and they keep making excellent wine. Alain Hudelot owns some fantastic vineyards and makes his wines in a natural style. He is now assisted by cellar master Vincent Mugnier. There is no green harvest. Alain allows the grapes to ripen to full phenolic maturity, retains some stems, ferments using natural yeasts and employs an extended maceration. While many of the wines see new oak, the wines show a wonderful purity of fruit and the barrel spice is always well integrated.

The three Grand Crus are among the best representations of their respective vineyards. The Richebourg vines were planted in the early 1920s and are directly adjacent to the parcel owned by DRC. The vines in Romanee St. Vivant are also 80+ years old. The grapes for the Clos Vougeot come from two rocky parcels of old vines in the northernmost section of the vineyard – one on the left of the Chateau and the other on the right."
