This 1.14-hectare parcel in Grand-Musigny was planted 1947-1962, producing 2,000-5,000 bottles annually from old vines after downgrading 15% replanted in 1997 to village Chambolle-Musigny. The lower slope mirrors Les Amoureuses structure but with more fissured rock allowing deeper root exploration and faster drainage, while upper slopes feature marly soil lightened by friable oolitic limestone scree that retains water, making the site drought-resistant and ensuring complete even ripening yearly. The 2017 vintage brought mild, dry, sunny weather creating perfect grape quality requiring no sorting—a first in the domaine's experience—producing Pinot Noir with red cherry, rose petals, and forest floor showing sedate depth, exceptional intensity, and unequaled finish length that needs ten years to fully express itself.
