This wine opens on a nose of ripe pear and honeydew with touch of vanilla. The palate has a round and elegant texture with a mouthwatering citrusy finish.

"Le Clos" is a plot surrounded by a wall, located in the park at the front of the domaine. Originally planted as a garden, it now produces rich, lively wine.

The grapes are handpicked and transported in small baskets. They are then press and fermented in barrels. 20% of the wine is aged in new oak for a year, then 4 months in tanks before bottling

This 4.5-hectare domaine was founded by the Changarnier family in 1720, 69 years prior to the French revolution. The family recently unearthed documents showing that one of their predecessors was born in 1629 in Monthélie, and worked in the fields for the monks of the Citeaux Abbaye. Today, the domaine is owned by brothers Claude and Antoine Changarnier and has been managed by the estimable Fabrice Groussin since 2015. Fabrice runs the vineyards organically and biodynamically, producing 25,000 bottles from 10 different appellations.
