La Butte O is a new cuvee started in 2020 from a parcel that touches 1er Cru Butteaux. Fermented and aged 60% in barrel and 40% in tank. The barrels are always from high-acid years, currently 2002, 2004, 2007, 2008, and 2010. Patrick explains that the first year that the barrel is used, there is not only an exhange of oak to the wine, but also of the wine to the barrel. So he avoids barrels that were first used in a warm vintage, thereby avoiding tropical notes from the barrels to his wine.
ABV: 12%
