Pommard "Les Cras" is our only red Côte de Beaune village level wine. The origin of the word "Cras" comes from "rocky hillsides", a term often used to designate a lower elevation vineyard whose soil is constituted of rubble and pebbly stones.
Very well situated at the top of the lieu-dit with a slight slope toward the south and between the intersection of two Premier Crus ("Les Combes Dessus" and "Le Clos Micot"), this 0.5 hectare parcel's soil is gravelly with a high quality red clay that is very typical of Pommard. Planted at the beginning of the 1980s, this vineyard gives generous, profound and sappy fruit.
