Biodynamic. This grows in a very old, genuine clos (walled vineyard) that sits on rocky, hard limestone bedrock close to the surface and is believed to be an old Roman path. The vineyard is on the lower part of the Pouilly-Vinzelles slope and is therefore classed as Mâcon-Vinzelles. The Bret brothers’ maternal grandfather purchased the site, hence the name Le Clos de Grand-Père. Speaking of maturity, some plants in this 0.7-hectare plot are now over 100 years old, and the average age is around 60 years. As is usual for this cuvée, the 2022 was mostly tank-raised—with just 10% old barrels used for maturation. From a lower-lying site that tends to deliver the most appreciable wine in the range, there is super energy this year.
