As always, the wine is made exclusively from Charles’s own, fastidiously tended, organic vineyards around the villages of Landreville (80%), Celles Sur Ource (10%) and Essoyes (10%) in the Côte des Bar. The varietal blend is Pinot Noir 60% Chardonnay 30% Pinot Blanc 10% with a base of 2020 (80%) and the remainder from a barrel aged perpetual reserve featuring wine from 2010 through 2019.All wines are wild fermented without sulphites in a combination of barrel and small tank and age a minimum of 12 months with total lees before tirage which took place in November 2021. Disgorgement from February 2023.

2020 was a warm vintage with excellent ripening conditions, so stylistically the wine is quite generous, yet retains good acidity and freshness of fruit alongside characteristic oxidative complexity.
