Le Haut-Lieu was the first vineyard the family acquired, a nine-hectare plot on the Première Côte planted on deep brown chalky clay, known locally as aubuis. Here the yellow tuffeau bedrock lies as much as four metres below the surface, so the soil holds more water and produces rounder, suppler wines than the estate’s other two sites. Le Haut-Lieu is generally the earliest maturing of the three cuvées and is usually the first ready to drink, though like Clos du Bourg and Le Mont it can be extremely long-lived; bottles from the 1940s are still in good order. This is the dry, or sec, bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOpen now for its supple side, or cellar for a decade or more. Serve at 10-12°C with pork rillettes, roast pork belly or a goat’s cheese.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*Every effort is made to ensure the current vintage is accurate; however, variations can occur.
