Aromas of apple, honey, and stone lead to a fresh and ripe palate of pear, apple, and herbs. Pairs well with fish and goat cheese.

This is the workhorse wine of the domaine both for the Thévenet family and for us.  The grapes for this cuvée are sourced from four separate parcels within Pierreclos: “Margots”, “Le Château”, “Les Grands Buys” and “La Bucherate”.  The average age of the vines is forty-five years.  The vineyards face east, southeast and south and are situated about 350 feet above sea level on the gently sloping hills of Pierreclos.  The wine is aged in cuve in contact with the fine lees but without any exposure to oak.  Total annual production is in the neighborhood of 15,000 bottles with a hefty majority dedicated to the US market.
