Valentin Desloges works the Bel Air terroir, a south-facing site where some of the vines reach sixty years of age. Age and low yields account for part of the wine's intensity, but so do the soils: red clay dominates, lying just beneath a layer of flinty sand, and the combination gives spicy generosity and breadth of texture. The winemaking follows the estate's Chapitre I cuvée, except that this wine is fermented in barrel and matured for eighteen months rather than twelve, in ex-Coche-Dury barrels with 20% new oak from the domaine's own coopering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrink over the next four to six years with grilled fish, roast chicken or goat's cheese; serve at 10–12°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.

The Comtesse lieu-dit has been considered the best single terroir of Chavignol for centuries; Thibaut Boulay traces the first mention of Montdampni to documents held by the Abbaye de Saint-Satur in 1252, and by the Paris Universal Exhibition of 1878 its wines were already served at the leading tables of northern France. The parcel was only grafted after 1945, having been the last ungrafted white vineyard in France. The soil is pure Kimmeridgian limestone with a mere 30 to 40 centimetres of topsoil over bedrock, which absorbs heat by day and radiates it at night; the site is also cooler and less exposed, so ripeness and freshness arrive together, giving a finer and more restrained wine than a typical Monts-Damnés.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFine now and capable of ten years or more.

The soils are pure Kimmeridgian limestone, and because the site runs cool the fruit is picked late, which brings density and precision together on the palate.
