Only very low yields and old, perfectly
healthy vines truly reflect the vineyard and its environment.
At the Domaine de Graillefiot, our policy is:
- Yields: 27 to 35 hectolitres/ hectare on the "Villages
Appellation". (the appellation decree authorises
45 hectolires/hectare)
- Average age of the vines: 40 years old. Old vines are
less productive, mature earlier, offer more consistent
quality and are a key component for the richness and depth
of a wine.
