Philippie Chatillon hand harvests grapes from the appellation of Arbois which are then gently pressed and spontaneously fermented in oak. The juice is aged in open top barrels for a year and produced in the ‘ouille’ style. Rich, highly aromatic and complex with good acid. This light bodied wine has a tendency to move around in your palate moving from the oxidized notes of sherry and honey to a nutty and mineral finish with some white florals and bruised fiji apples.

Behind the Bottle

In the appellation of Arbois, Philippe Chatillon has tended to his small, 2 hectare vineyard of steep, marl rich soil since 2013. Working biodynamically with no pesticides or chemical fertilizers whatsoever, his extreme philosophy is perhaps best exemplified by his work in the cellar. Although spontaneous fermentation, no fining, and no filtration is normal for natural wine — he uses the vibrations of singing bowls and crystal harps to achieve balance within the large wooden barrels of aging wines. Trust us, it works.
