Consider it’s from a low yielding hillside spot (45 hectolitres per hectare), high quality estate fruit from Francois’s stable in Givry and same aging (70% new oak, full lees, only racked once before bottling). Frankly it’s as good as most village wines and as the critics continue to say a bargain for the quality in the bottle. 0.5 hectare, vines are an average age of 10 years. La Paulee comes from a site next to the Givry village plot of En Bartias, just in the SW tip of the appellation. It’s south facing and is very steep delivering good drainage to a site only classified as Bourgogne.
