The Gamay vines are a blend of several plots in the village of Lantignié, high up in the hills and bordering the cru of Régnié and another village a little further south. The average altitude of the east and southeast facing parcels is 380 meters. The shallow soils are mainly composed of sandy “gore” from decomposed-pink-granite. The average vine age ranges between 40 & 50 years old.David and Michele's goal is to make you wish you ordered a magnum of it. Fermented whole cluster, semi-carbonic maceration and aged in cuve for about seven months.. There are no punch downs or pump overs.
