Tradition and modernity go hand in hand in Burgundy. For centuries, Domaine Coste-Caumartin has been producing its wines using techniques rooted in its family heritage.
THE VINEYARDS
We use the Guyot pruning method. Our vines are debudded and then trained on trellises. We use green manure to improve soil fertility and structure.
Mechanical tillage is tailored to the soil type, with two objectives:
– to limit shallow rooting in favour of a deeper root system, which enables the vines to better withstand drought
– to aerate the soil to allow for better water absorption
GRAPE HARVEST, WINEMAKING AND AGEING
Domaine Coste-Caumartin is fortunate to be able to continue ageing its wines in its authentic vaulted cellar dating from the 17th century.
