A small parcel of 80-year-old vines at the base of Charmes. Fichet added drainage in the late-1990s to limit vigor. Vines planted in 1930. Fermentation in stainless steel before a gentle 18-month élevage in barrel. This is the richest and fullest of the Fichet lieux-dits, yet it shares their focus, minerality and length.
Jean-Philippe Fichet has assembled this Meursault-based domaine parcel by parcel over two decades. Viticulture and vinifications aim to capture terroir, delineation, and minerality in the wines. Viticulture is “lutte raisonée” (reasoned organic). Jean-Philippe aims to know his vines, and to work with them to find a healthy equilibrium. He eschews chemical fertilizers, herbicides or pesticides. All whites except Aligote and Bourgogne Blanc go through malo in barrel. Bâtonnage is limited depending on the health of the lees and the nature of the vintage. A six-year barrel rotation is employed, with only a few wines (in top vintages) seeing more than 15% new wood. Harvest is by hand.
