This is Jean-Pierre Grossot’s flagship wine. From around an acre of the Mont de Milieu vineyard, he produces an intensely ripe wine that pulls toward great minerality and steeliness. There is power as well, with just touches of wood.

A complex wine that is influenced by wood, but shows more of fresh lime and white currants. There’s intense acidity, lifted green flavors and a round aftertaste.

The extra amount of clay in the soil of this vineyard lends weight, richness and roundness. At the same time, it has fresh lime, an open character and a soft structure.

Somewhat earthy and rustic, this is a fresh wine, with citrus notes and some yeastiness. The wine’s fruit has finishing liveliness and crispness.
