Wines of patience, grown on a chalk hill.
Forty-two hectares of vines, one family and thirty-seven vintages. We farm slowly, pick by hand and bottle only what the hill gives us.

The estate
Three generations, one hill
Our grandparents planted the first Pinot Noir on the south slope in 1987, on a hunch about chalk and sea breeze. The hunch was right. Today the vines are older, the cellar is deeper, and the approach is the same: listen to the site, and don't rush it.
- Organic farming since 2009, with sheep grazing between the rows each winter
- Dry-farmed: no irrigation, deep roots, concentrated fruit
- Aged in a hand-dug chalk cellar that holds 13°C all year

Vintage notes
Every year tells its own story
Slide through nine harvests: the weather, the date we started picking and how the wines turned out. Weather shapes a vintage more than we ever do.
2022Heat & patience
Our score94/ 100
The hottest July on record. We shaded the fruit with leaves and waited for cooler nights; the Pinot Noir kept its freshness.

The guest book
Kind words from the long table
We booked the cellar tour on a whim and left with a case of the Syrah and a dinner reservation. Best Saturday of the year.
The club shipments feel curated by a friend, not an algorithm. The tasting notes card alone is worth it.
Sat at the long table for the harvest dinner. Candles, rows of vines, and a Pinot I still think about.
A winery that tastes of its hill, not its marketing budget.
The Cellar LedgerThe Pinot Noir is quietly among the most thoughtful in the region.
Vine & Table MonthlyCome for the wine, stay for the taproom, leave with gin.
