95% Pinot Noir/5% Gamay. Named for the site, which roughly translates to "little gravelly one", Gravotte comes from a single 1.2-hectare plot of estate vines in the 35-40-year-old range, planted on particuarly stony, flinty clay-limestone soils; it is organically farmed and harvested by hand. Typical of Tue-Boeuf reds, the whole clusters go through a semi-carbonic maceration and spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts and without sulfur in vat. Gravotte is aged around 6 months in used demi-muids and Burgundy barrels. The wine is bottled without filtration and with little to no sulfur. It is classified as AOC Cheverny.
