Notes from the Importer: Domaine des Ardoisières was created in 1998 by the iconic Michel Grisard. Brice Ormont joined the team in 2005 and took it over five years later. The vineyard was planted on steep slopes (up to 60%) only with local grape varieties like Jacquère, Mondeuse, Altesse, and Persan. Brice Ormont's rigorous work in the vineyard is the key asset of the wine quality. Every action that is run in the vineyard aims to convey to grapes, therefore to wines, the identity of each plot. This biodynamic vineyard is run with passion and respect of the living world.
