Vineyards are in the Hautes Côtes, at the top of the slopes just above Domaine
de la Motte's Chablis classified plots and so achieve good ripeness. The soil is
Portlandian, which is less chalky than Kimmeridgian, and typically produces
wines which are less mineral and more fruity, well suited to earlier drinking.
Having said that, Motte’s wine has real finesse with good fruit character – very
much their house style. Cool-fermented in stainless steel, malolactic
fermentation is also in stainless steel and the wine is unoaked.

Fairly restrained on the nose, savoury herbs and citrus on the palate. Well
balanced with a suggestion of "hot stone" minerality. Old school, lean, and
steely.
