The estate

La Cave des Hautes-Côtes

In the elevated vineyards of the Hautes-Côtes de Beaune, the 2006 vintage stands as a testament to the resilience and finesse of the Pinot Noir grape. This Grande Cuvée was born from high-altitude plots where the cool climate allows the fruit to ripen slowly, developing a unique aromatic complexity that defines the identity of La Cave des Hautes-Côtes. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this wine captures the essence of a maturing Burgundy. After nearly two decades, the 2006 vintage has moved gracefully into a tertiary phase, shedding its initial youthful intensity to reveal the elegant, earthen soul of its limestone-rich terroir.
