Clos de l'Ecotard Description
This parcel is completely plowed by horse (no tractor), and natural grass growth is encouraged.
As this wine is a maturity-based selection of vines from the Clos de l'Ecotard, the total surface area and quantity produced vary each year depending on the vintage conditions.
Vinous: 92 Points
Les Pentes de l'Ecotard is the apex of the vineyard on pure white limestone, which is fermented and aged in foudre. The 2020 vintage is all about tranquility and silken texture while remaining light on its feet. Pure and refined, this is subtly in its aromatic profile. It almost has a sweetness to it, but it's completely dry - the ripeness of the apple and pear fruit reflects the vintage, followed up with a less-derived almond pastry character.
