Philippe Kubler, took over his family’s domaine in 2004, carrying on the estate's history that started in 1620. The vineyard of 10 hectares is composed of five main soil types, and grape varieties are selected according to soil type, with the aim of achieving the best expression between grape variety and geological signature. Traditional, respectful winemaking methods such as fermentation in foudres are used, and no pesticides in the vineyard, respecting the biology.

Tasting
A succulent nose, full-bodied, ripe and without excess, with aromas of cherry and subtle notes of roasted Morello cherry. Dense, light and delicately spicy on the palate, with warm, silky tannins and an exceptionally long, mineral finish.
Food pairings
This full-bodied, elegant wine is the perfect accompaniment to beef ribs, boeuf bourguignon and all tasty red and rosé meats.
