From the same winemaker as Closerie du Pelan, this is from the neighboring estate, farmed strictly organically since the 1980s, with biodynamic treatments, before being taken over by Chateau Le Puy in 2022, the wines were made thoughtfully and traditionally in the cellar. Named after his granddaughter, “Johanna” was Régis Moro’s top wine, containing his oldest vines (70 years on average, with a parcel planted in 1904) and employing a more serious élevage than the “basic” cement-aged Champs de Mars bottling. The 1999 “Johanna” was hand-harvested, destemmed completely, given a 48-hour pre-fermentation maceration, and vinified in 50-hectoliter tronconic oak casks for 60 days with manual punch-downs; it then spent 18 months in well-used 225-liter barrels clarifying naturally, and was bottled without fining or filtration.
