From a village that is often not taken as seriously as it should be comes Christophe Coillot, who takes his wine very seriously indeed. And yet his wines are fun, in a way you don`t often find. They`re fun because of the classic, silky textures, the balance and the well judged structures, but above all else because of the fruit. 90% of the domaine is organic, and no herbicides or pesticides are used, with instead lots of hard work done by hand. The soils are ploughed to restrict the growth of superficial roots and forcing the main root system deeper into the ground for superior take up of naturally occurring nutrients and minerals. A very good domaine and Christophe deserves wider acclaim. (CW 24/06/14)
