Les Bouffants - the energy of the caillottes. Set on a light-bathed geological spur, this plot offers a lively, precise wine marked by a characteristic mineral tension.
Les Monts Damnés - the charm of the white soils. A steep and demanding plot, it yields a deep, complex wine carried by the power of the Kimmeridgian limestone.
