In 1990, the best Chardonnay clones from Burgundy's Cru vineyards were cultivated in the south-west facing Kirchberg vineyard. This rather cooler vineyard is characterized by calcareous volcanic soils. The wine is aged for 12 months in 35% new wooden barrels and then aged for 6 months on the full yeast in stainless steel. The nose reveals citrus aromas in combination with nutty, slightly smoky notes, which are complemented on the palate by fine minerality and fresh acidity.
