Biodynamic. This grows in a very old clos (walled vineyard) that sits on rocky, hard limestone bedrock and is supposedly an old Roman path. The vineyard sits on the lower part of the Pouilly-Vinzelles slope and is therefore classed as Mâcon-Vinzelles. The Bret brothers’ maternal grandfather purchased the site, hence the name Le Clos de Grand-Père. Speaking of maturity, some plants in this 0.7-hectare plot are now over 100 years old, and the average vine age is around 60 years. As is usual for this cuvée, the 2023 was mostly tank-raised, with just 10% old barrels used for maturation. It is from a lower-lying site that tends to deliver the most appreciable wine in the range. There is super energy this year alongside a triad of succulent fruit, citrusy acidity and powdery structure that puts many more expensive Burgundies to shame.
