The Estate Benoît Lahaye
"Benoit Lahaye est l'un des vignerons les plus doués de sa génération. Installé sur Bouzy il est maintenant rejoint par ses fils Étienne et Valentin. Il possède ainsi 4,5 hectares de vignes conduites en briodynamie, avec l'aide de sa jument Tamise et du chien Bacchus.
Les vins sont d'une parfaite harmonie, dans une vibration optimale entre le fruit et les composants du vin. Au brut vinifié sans soufre et non dosé, à la cuvée naturessence, mi-chardonnay mi-pinot noir, de grande complexité, s'ajoute cette année une cuvée parcellaire, le jardin-de-la-grosse-pierre, à partir d'une complantation datant de 1923.
Un domaine hautement recommandable, dont tous les amateurs devraient s'emparer." 4*/5 Bettane+Desseauve
