The Bitouzets farm their narrow slice of Santenots with the same zero-compromise approach as all their sites in the village—organically, with zero chemical herbicides or pesticides. All fruit is farmed and harvested by hand.
Les Aussy is a generous Premier Cru vineyard, Moderate wood sets off fresh, ripe and spicy aromas of red currant, violet and a whisper of rose petal.
The sleek, detailed and pure middle weight flavors possess very good energy and a subtle minerality that becomes progressively more prominent as the lingering finish sits on the palate. This is lovely and understated.
