Terroir Notes: Côte aux Prêtres takes its name from its proximity to an old pilgrimage route, leading to Vézelay to reach Compostela. Its gentle slope is exposed to a permanent light wind. The vines growing on this parcel have to dig deep into the calcium rich soil to protect from the wind. The resulting wines are distinguished by their salinity, their minerality, and their concentration. Côte aux Prêtres is a wine that would please the palate of any seafood lover.
Winemaking Notes: The grapes are harvested by hand. The harvest is directly pressed at a low pressure. The wine is fermented with native yeast. The wine then ages in oak barrels for a long élevage. Côte aux Prêtres is bottled without fining or filtration and with low SO2.
