A family farm of 14 hectares for many generations. Operations have been managed by Mr. Frantz Normand since 1999, but since 2020 his son Antoine has shared management with a view to its future total takeover.
The estate has been HVE level 3 certified since the 2020 campaign. The vines are ploughed exclusively without the use of herbicides. The wines are aged for a minimum of 12 months in barrels with, for certain vintages, blended in stainless steel vats in order to properly homogenize the vintage.
