Notes from Becky Wasserman & Co.:

"60 year old vines from the foot of the hill of Corton facing Ladoix. Deep clay and silt soil.

Antoine Lepetit de la Bigne wears many hats and, over the past 15 or so years, has devoted himself to helping growers develop and succeed with organic and biodynamic viticultural methods in Burgundy. We met him at Domaine Leflaive in Puligny-Montrachet, where he worked for 8 years.”

Jasper Morris:

"From the Vieilles Vignes plot with 12 months more in amphora. The 2022 is about to be bottled. Clear pale colour with a green tint. Rather a beautiful nose, fine and floral with considerable finesse, more fruit volume than 2023, being a smaller crop, with a superb balance of fruit and acidity to finish. Very classy"
