Stéphane Aladame farms just 0.5-hectares of this east-facing site. The domaine’s vines fall in the Montagny-les-Buxy section of the terroir in deep marl and blue clay soils at 290 metres altitude. Aladame uses two parcels (the older planted in 1985) supplemented by a ration of Chardonnay Muscaté (an old variety of Chardonnay that Benjamin Leroux also works with in the Meursault Narvaux terroir). The wine fermented and matured for 10 months in neutral 350-litre oak barrels. This is a step-up in density, yet it maintains the finesse, vibrancy and definition that are key to the domaine’s style. It’s really well detailed with pure notes of stone fruit, white flowers and salinity over juicy, mouthwatering texture. It finishes with lovely class, energy and zip. All nice things here.
