\nDocumentary research into the history of the climats, a precise geological, pedological and topographical study of the appellation, a plot survey of all producers, cultivation practices, economic data, tasting sessions and public meetings were all undertaken.

\nPremier Cru” wines can be fruitier, more powerful or more mineral, depending on the origin of the grapes.
