The soils there are somewhat richer and less chalky, so that the grapes ripen a little later here than in the rest of the municipality. The wines here are less fruity and always fresher with a little more acidity.

The Sous la Velle is a completely flat vineyard and is composed of six plots in the eponymous site. Three of them are located at the foot of the Meursault hill, opposite the Chateau de Meursault. The soils there are somewhat richer and less chalky, so the grapes ripen a little later here than in the rest of the commune. They produce wines of classic expression with ripe yellow fruit. Three other plots are located on the Puligny-Montrachet side. The wines here turn out less fruity and are always fresher with a little more acidity. The vines are 45 to 65 years old and produce accessible and generous Meursaults with lively tension and vibration early on.

The grapes are harvested by hand, followed by whole bunch pressing without prior crushing and two days of sedimentation in concrete. Then the fermenting must is pumped into French oak barrels where it undergoes malolactic fermentation. The wine then matures in barrel for 18 months, is assembled in steel one month before bottling.
