Meursault’s Jean-Philippe Fichet

Jean-Philippe Fichet of Meursault discusses the special vineyard location where he sources his Bourgogne Blanc Vieilles Vignes. This is one of the few places in Burgundy where Premier Cru vines abut a Bourgogne Blanc vineyard.

Additionally, Jean-Philippe discusses the use of plowing to cut the superficial vine root structure and encourage deeper root growth. It also allows for the increased absorption of mineral elements from the soil.
