 Philippe, Catherine and Christophe JOMAIN, brothers and sisters, exploit their own winegrowing within a land grouping creates on November 3rd, 1992. The winegrowing includes/understands 9 hectares of vineyard with PULIGNY-MONTRACHET of which 4 produce primarily white great wines of world reputation resulting from the type of vine chardonnay in the appellations village, 1er cru and grand cru. Combining modernism and tradition, the winegrowing is directed with dynamism by the JOMAIN family. Anxious to preserve the environment, the winegrowing follows a program of fight reasoned. The reasoned fight makes it possible to preserve the medical quality of harvests without deteriorating the ecological medium by using only pesticides severely approved and used on a case-by-case basis according to the medical condition of each piece. The efforts bear their fruits because the ecological medium is reconstituted in the vineyard. The vintage is collected manually, the respectful wine making of each appellation is carried out by pneumatic pressing. The wines ferment was of oak in a proportion not exceeding the quarter of new barrel. The traditional maturing and the setting in bottles are carried out with meticulousness without excessive handling of the wines under the narrow control of an approved laboratory of enology. During malo-lactic fermentation the wines are bâtonnés in order to obtain more roundness and of complexity. In spring, the wines then are tapped and clarified by joining, the setting out of bottle intervening generally at the beginning of September.
