The Collets retain 7 of their 10ha to make this wine which comes from most of the subsections available: Epinottes, Chatains, Mélinots, Roncières and Vaillons itself. Both vinification and maturation are split one third each between barrel, foudre and tank. The classic Vaillons dry stones are covered by a little bit of juicy fruit in 2018. Medium weight and intensity, but with an excellent finish.

10 hectares here - lucky it’s mum’s favourite - ‘I can’t understand that anyone wouldn’t like it’ she says! From Epinottes, Minot, Encieres
Wine Enthusiast - Anne Krebiehl MW
Notions of moss and green pear peel are bound up in an aromatic citrus-oil richness on this wine's expressive nose. The palate comes in with the expected concentration. This wine is energetic, yet anchored in cool depths of limestone and chalk. It has a salty tang and the allure of textured pear peel and citrus pith. Layers of fruit and stone play off each other, leaving us to witness and sense the pleasure. Drink by 2040. Cellar Selection.
