Single Vineyard – "Les Genévríères"
Les Genévríères is a vineyard in the heart of Côtes de Nuits, where Pinot Noir grapes thrive in ideal conditions to develop into a wine with both elegance and depth. The slow ripening and lower yields result in a wine with extraordinary character.
Domaine de Montmain and Château de Villars Fontaine
It is worth noting that Château de Villars Fontaine changed its name to Domaine de Montmain a few years ago, meaning that older vintages from the estate are bottled under the old name Château de Villars Fontaine, while the newer vintages are bottled under the new name Domaine de Montmain. Over time, the name Château de Villars Fontaine will gradually be phased out, but the wine from this older vintage, like 2010, remains a shining example of the estate's fine craftsmanship.
