From the same site as the Sangreal pinot noir. Planted in 1994 on red soil over limestone. The limestone of this site is not exposed on the surface as at other sites. The limestone starts 20 to 30cm below the surface, to the depths of the root zone of the vines. It is a very exposed north-facing slope.
Vine cuttings from Domaine Dujac.
