A single plot in the plain of Pommard from a lieu-dit called Les Noeuds. The vines are 60 years old and very low yielding never giving more than 20 hectolitres/hectare. The soil is red to brown clay mixed with small pieces of limestone. The limestone helps to keep the soil from being too wet which is a common issue on the plains.
Guillaume and Aude Lavollée represent the fourth generation of vignerons at Génot-Boulanger. Their wines are produced exclusively from estate-owned vineyards, located along all three Burgundy côtes, from Chambolle Musigny, down to the domaine in Meursault, and on to Mercurey.
Since 2008, Guillaume and Aude have worked painstakingly to improve the quality of their wines, converting to organic farming practices and experimenting with biodynamics. The domaine’s philosophy is “maximum work in the vineyards for minimum intervention in the cuverie.” This has translated to wines that are first and foremost true to their terroir.
