The Clos du Chapître is a Monopole vineyard for this producer. The one-hectare plot is located behind the family house and cellars within the Rully 1er Cru Chapître, enclosed by a two-metre high stone wall. The Pinot yields here are controlled by severe pruning, de-budding and green harvesting. There is also manual sorting of bunches in order to keep only the most beautiful clusters of fruit. This year, only 20% of whole bunches were retained and the wine was aged in oak barrels (50% new) for 15 months before bottling.

Reviews

“Here the nose is quite firmly reduced though the underlying fruit seems quite ripe. There is more volume still to the solidly concentrated medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a robust, powerful and slightly austere finale. This is sufficiently firm to require at least a few years of patience.” 89-92 points
