WINE MAKING PROCESS
Domaine Catherine & Claude Maréchal employs a winemaking process deeply rooted in Burgundian tradition, influenced by Henri Jayer. Grapes are fully destemmed and fermented with indigenous yeasts in open wooden vats, sometimes preceded by a cold pre-maceration. The lees are returned to the juice to enhance character. Aging occurs in barrels for 10-15 months, with a low percentage of new oak (10-25%) to preserve fruit purity. The wine is bottled unfiltered, maintaining its natural integrity and expression of terroir.
