Legendary for their purity, each bottle of chardonnay and pinot noir that he releases is quickly snapped up by collectors around the world. He pushes for the highest degree of care in the vineyards both with his own vines and those he buys. Biodynamics are followed whenever possible and organic viticulture always. He makes around fifty different cuvees in each vintage and acknowledges that, \"It takes more time and more energy to work these plots,” but, he continues, “It fills me with energy, too. Touching so many different terroirs. I don't feel as though I am losing my time. \"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"OutlineElement Ltr SCXW235572828 BCX0\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"OutlineElement Ltr SCXW249155358 BCX0\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Paragraph SCXW249155358 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\" lang=\"EN-US\" class=\"TextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"Normal (Web)\"\u003eThe \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\" lang=\"EN-US\" class=\"TextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\" data-ccp-charstyle=\"Emphasis\"\u003eMeursault-\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SpellingErrorV2Themed SCXW249155358 BCX0\" data-ccp-charstyle=\"Emphasis\"\u003eBlagny\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\" data-ccp-charstyle=\"Emphasis\"\u003e, La Pièce-sous-le-Bois 1er Cru\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-contrast=\"auto\" lang=\"EN-US\" class=\"TextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW249155358 BCX0\" data-ccp-parastyle=\"Normal (Web)\"\u003e is a stunning expression of chardonnay, sourced from high-elevation vineyards where limestone gravel and white marl soils lend tension and minerality to the wine.
