Pierre Antoine Jambon ran the domaine until he was joined a couple of years ago by his childhood friend Michel Prudhon. Committed to growing healthy vines, they practice environmentally friendly viticulture, yields are deliberately kept low for the region and the grass is encouraged to grow between the rows of vines.
All the wines come from slow spontaneous fermentation, the use of sulphites has been moderated and cuve ageing on fine lees is carried out for 6 to 8 months.
