Fun Facts: This vintage bottling comes from four lieu-dits: “La Perchape” in Œuilly, “Four à Chaux”, “Mont Martin”, “Haut du Four à Chaux” in Celles-lès-Condé. They were each vinified individually (as are all the parcels at Tarlant) and these four plots were chosen in a blind tasting to be blended and released as a "snapshot" of the vintage.
