Located in the hamlet of Poncey, south of Givry, Domaine Vincent Lumpp covers 9 hectares and is recognized for its rigorous and precise work on Givry Premier Crus. The vineyard is cultivated in sustainable agriculture, with particular attention to parcel selection and soil work.

They stand out for their subtle balance between power and finesse, with aromas of black fruits, licorice, and blond tobacco. The estate stands out for its meticulous work by appellation, revealing all the typicity of Givry Premier Crus, through wines of great purity and precision.
Terroir
Shallow brown limestone clay-loam soil derived from marl, located on a fairly steep hillside with East / South-East exposure.
In the vineyard
Vine management focuses on low yields, careful soil work, and sustainable treatments to encourage full phenolic ripeness. The steep slope aids natural drainage and sun exposure, enhancing concentration and aromatic precision.
Harvest
Manual harvest ensures optimal selection of grapes and gentle handling.
Winemaking
Grapes are fully destemmed, followed by a highly extractive fermentation in wooden vats to emphasize structure and aromatic intensity.
Ageing
Aged for 12 months in Allier oak barrels, 20% of which are new. Once malolactic fermentation is complete, the wine is assembled and matured in stainless steel tanks for 3 to 6 months before light filtration through cellulose pads and bottling.

Pinot Noir : 100%
