Practicing lutte raisonnée in the vineyard, Jean-Michel works the soil without pesticides, practicing green harvesting to ensure low yields. Via traditional vinification methods, Gaunoux’s wines see 15-30% new oak and are bottled after 15-16 months; they are neither filtered nor fined, and their aging potential is outstanding. Crystal clear in colour. On the nose, white flowers and citrus. Supple, beautiful balance between minerality and roundness, slight bitterness fine mouth, pleasant length. (mylittlebourgogne.com)
