About the Winery: Arbois & Buvilly, villages where the vineyards are located, are on the same parallel as Puligny Montrachet & Chassagne. Florent Rouve’s vineyard is located on rolling hills of limestone with an average altitude between 200 to 400 meters. It enjoys a semi-continental climate (temperature variations can be unexpected). These conditions are perfect to build the elegant structure and the fine aromas of great white wines.
With vineyards and separate cellars in both the Mâconnais and the Jura, Florent Rouve is perfectly placed to show the difference between these two neighbouring wine regions. All the wines are fermented and aged for between 9 and 15 months in small French oak barrels
