The monks of Cîteaux, who already owned Clos Vougeot, coveted the Musigny vineyard but were never able to acquire it. They put all their hopes instead on Grands-Echezaux so as to become the rival of the prestigious Musigny.\u003cbr\u003eBefore the presence of the vineyard, there was an important agricultural estate cultivated by the monks of the Abbey of Saint-Vivant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003eSoil\u003c\/u\u003e: on a moderate incline, facing due east.

Our credo is to provide « natural answers to natural problems ». All our practices show the greatest respect for the soil, the vine, and the environment. Our deliberately low production yields allow our grapes to reveal the precise expression of each terroir.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"bloc-fiche\"\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"bloc-fiche__title\"\u003eWinemaking\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/u\u003e grapes harvested by hands in open-work crates.

In accordance with the terroir and the profile of the vintage, we do 2 to 3 weeks of fermentation and maceration in small open vats, marked by punching of the cap and pumping-over. The yeasts are indigenous (natural). Pressing in a vertical press. Separation of the ends of the presses based on tasting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cu\u003eAgeing:\u003c\/u\u003e  in oak barrels including 30% of new barrels.\u003cbr\u003eThe ageing lasts between 16 to 20 months.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrigin of the wood: oak grown in French high forest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThroughout the ageing process, decisions are taken only after careful tasting evaluation.
