Vineyard notes: “As the only Burgundy Grand Cru facing west, the Charlemagne climate has the particularity of looking towards the setting sun and enjoying the sun’s rays for many hours. The vines, located at about 1,000 feet in altitude, escape the dragging morning fog: To the east lays the Saône plain, enabling morning light to quickly reach the hillside; In the west, draughts flow down from the valleys and provide permanent ventilation. Thus, positioned at the crossroads of varied and beneficial influences, the grapes – products of light rather than heat – reach optimal maturity, essential to deliver great wines. From this union between light, wind and soil, wines are born with exceptional character and ability to age.”
