Our second plot is vinified and bottled separately under the name "Christiane", as a tribute to Hubert's wife and Étienne's mother, who passed in 2008. Christiane spent her life bending over backwards for the family estate. This plot enjoys a unique geographic location, nestled like an enclave bordered by original "la Tâche" and two paths. It should be noted that despite this geographic and cadastral singularity, this plot is not, and has never historically been part of "La Tâche". Yet, the nose expresses darker fruit (blackcurrant, cherry), with more spice and minerality. The palate is denser, sappier, with a tighter more serious tannin structure. Its aging potential being higher than its twin sister's, it requires a bit more patience.

Today’s style remains faithful to Hubert's classic and terroir-driven approach, with greater aromatic expression, silkier and more unctuous textures in the reds, allowing them to drink earlier, without compromising their ability to age. The domaine is known in Burgundy for using a significant proportion of whole clusters that varies from one to cuvée to another depending on the plant material and the vintage.

Organic since 1995 and biodynamic since 2005. All our wines are certified by Ecocert.

2022 embraces both quality and generosity, and reveals a vibrant and incredibly seductive profile with crunchy fruitiness.

Autumn and winter are mild with temperatures already higher than normal for the season and low rainfall. Temperatures continue to rise as months go by, reaching new heights with no less than four heatwave episodes but thankfully, although rare, the rains are sufficient and the vine keeps growing in the best possible conditions. The harvest begins in the last week of August. The hot and dry weather help limit the number of treatments to twice, three times less than the year before. The grapes are healthy, impeccable and the desired balance is there thanks to the light showers that fell in mid-August.

The aromas of fresh red fruit, the already silky tannins and the incredible energy seal a flamboyant future for this promising and already very accessible vintage. As for the whites, great balance once more, with a fruitiness that is both ripe and deliciously fresh.

A powerful nose of red cherry and blackcurrant, with a lot of spice and slightly smoky. On the palate, one could almost get lost in its impetuosity and depth. The extraordinary character of this terroir is expressed with more density, firmer tannins, and an incredible finish.
