Their parcels contain a swathe of older vines, including single old vine parcels of Chardonnay and Gamay planted \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ein 1926. Even the domaine’s entry-level bottling is made with fruit from vines averaging 60 years old.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe domaine boasts an array of single parcel bottlings, both white and red, all of which are single varietal – each showcasing a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eunique terroir. In true Burgundian fashion, Philippe is fascinated by the subtle differences of each parcel and its unique exposition, \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eworking intuitively to coax the nuanced expression of each site. Limestone subsoil is the geological common thread, and father and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eson let it take center stage in each cuvée. The vines dig deep into the limestone bedrock, allowing the duo to hone the racy and \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evibrant qualities that make their wines so compelling.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThey have always worked with the conviction that the only way to farm is with living soils, regularly plowed and not treated with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003epesticides and herbicides. Fermentations are always done with native yeasts. In 2018, they began transitioning to organic \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ecertification through Ecocert.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDomaine de la Sarazinière is named after a small river and is located in the village of Bussières, one of approximately 40 recognized \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003evillages in Mâcon-Villages. The first vines were planted in 1926 by Philippe's uncle Claude Seigneuret, and the fruit from those vines \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003estill go into the domaine's leading old vine cuvées -\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\"Cuvée Claude Seigneuret\" for the blanc, and \"Les Devants\" for the rouge.
