LEARN MORE
ine is alive in the bottle and on our palates. Yet today wines are simplified into rankings and scores. How can something so intimate, so complex, be subjectively presented as a number? We believe wine is very personal: we must experience the place, encounter the people, understand the philosophy, and taste the wines for ourselves, in order to discover our own preferences. It’s our ambition to introduce wine enthusiasts around the world to the elegant tastes of Burgundy. It’s our purpose … and our pleasure.
LET THE VINTAGE DO THE TALKING
Our philosophy is to always maintain a hands-off approach that allows nature to remain in control, entrusting the vintage to do the talking, not the winemaker, or the business. The five distinct, but complementary, terroirs of Clos Marey-Monge are each harvested, fermented, and aged separately, following a vinification process that applies as little human interference as possible. It is only at the last possible moment that we step in and create a balanced blend of the five terroirs. Listening to the vintage’s peculiarities and requirements allows us to use our experience and intuition to select just the right percentages and proportions for the blend. Nothing else. The result is a vintage that always reflects the best of the terroir and Mother Nature but is always created with our signature style emphasizing elegance, complexity and
IN HARMONY WITH NATURE
In our constantly connected and distracted society, wine remains one of our stalwart relationships with the earth. As stewards of these exceptional terroirs and terrain of a timeless, ageless, beauty, we are aware of the obligations accompanying this responsibility. We take these obligations seriously. Our goal is to always work in harmony with the laws of nature. Ecological awareness and protection of the planet is all of our responsibility. Embracing sustainability and biodynamics is not just about making delightfully nuanced wines, it’s about making a connection with our planet that resonates deeply with who we are and, most importantly, who we aspire to be. We know that in the end, our commitment to these practices and our respect for the land will make it possible for us to leave this place better than we found it for generations to come.
A WINE GLASS SHOULD NEVER BE FULL ... OR EMPTY.
Ultimately, we are devoted to celebrating and sharing our enthusiasm for life. Making elegant wines is what we do, but purveyors of passion – that’s who we are. For us, life is all about passion – a passion for wine, a passion for food, a passion for travel, a passion for whatever feeds your spirit. It’s a healthy and respectful ethos for our minds, our bodies, and our souls. It’s about savoring every last sip out of the wine glass of life and then filling it back up by remaining dedicated to something meaningful and spending time with those who mean the most to you. Put simply, it’s about falling in love with life every single day.
