Vintage : 2025

In Burgundy, the 2025 vintage was shaped by summer drought and uneven ripening across parcels. The early harvest brought in healthy, concentrated grapes, producing wines that are both fresh and well-balanced. Reminiscent of the great “vintages ending in 5,” the reds promise elegance and depth, while the whites combine richness and freshness. A highly promising vintage.
