On the left bank of the Serein and on the mid-slope, Vaillons is a particularly well-positioned Premier Cru that enjoys an excellent reputation thanks to the work of several key growers. The Domaine works with vines planted in 1974 in the lieux-dits of Les Epinottes (a cooler part of the vineyard) and Roncières (which provides more flesh). Then, a parcel of 75-year-old vines in Sécher usually accounts for 30% of the blend and provides intense mineral cut and structure. The wine fermented and aged in both tank and older barrels, including some 600-litre barrels. Each parcel was vinified separately before blending.

Reviews

“Opening from the glass with an expressive bouquet of tangerine zest, white flowers, pear and oyster shell, it’s followed by a medium to full-bodied palate with ample chalky extract and a saline finish. It’s broader than Beauregard but simultaneously racier than Montmains.”
92-94 points, Kristaps Karklins, The Wine Advocate
“Almost a little more serious but with fine clarity too. Hmm – like the nose – less overt energy – but there’s also less gas here. Supple, clean, with a small chalky finishing style. Excellent style – vs the other it needs more time for the tension to express itself.”
