100% Melon de Bourgogne. Gras Moutons is the name of a lieu-dit in the cru of Monnières-St. Fiacre. Its good fortune is to be just high enough to almost never be afflicted by frost. These 20-70-year-old vines lie on sandy and pebbly gneiss-based soils with little clay. The farming is certified-biodynamic. The vineyard work including harvest is manual. The whole bunches are pressed very gently and the juice settled naturally in steel tanks overnight. The must is fermented spontaneously with indigenous yeasts and a small amount of sulfur. The wine is moved by gravity to underground cement tanks, where it ages on the lees for 9 months. It is bottled without filtration or any additional sulfur.
