Discover the grape variety: Mara
Light, fruity reds with a clear ruby robe, smooth tannins and a supple palate of simple red fruits (raspberry, strawberry, cherry), gentle spices and floral notes. A thirst-quenching profile to drink young. Once grown in the South-West, now nearly extinct, preserved in INRAE varietal collections for its genetic value. A rare French grape, witness to the pre-phylloxera ampelographic diversity of the South-West.

The wine region of Pommard
Sturdy bastion of the Côte de Beaune: signature Pinot Noir as exclusive king red — deep red with mauve glints, frank and powerful with notes of blackberry, blueberry, redcurrant, concentrated cherry and ripe plum, evolving into leather, pepper and chocolate with age, firm tannins and dense structure. More powerful and tannic than its neighbours (Volnay, Beaune), needing a few years' cellaring. Village AOC (1936) between Beaune and Volnay, rich clay-limestone, 28 Premiers Crus (Rugiens, Épenots).
The wine region of Burgundy
Absolute reference for great terroir wines: opulent, mineral Chardonnay in whites (chiselled Chablis, buttery Meursault, majestic Montrachet), fine and silky Pinot Noir in reds (full-bodied Gevrey, structured Pommard, delicate Volnay). Exceptional age-worthy wines with complex notes - red fruits, undergrowth, butter, hazelnut. Some lively Aligoté and light Gamay (Mâconnais). 29,500 ha, 84 tiered AOCs (Régionale, Village, 1er Cru, Grand Cru), 1,247 UNESCO Climats.
The word of the wine: Thinning out
Operation consisting in eliminating the suckers that grow on the vine stocks.
