Dessus la Carriere is made from two Kimmeridgian clay-limestone lieux dits (Semon and Paradis) that sit above an abandoned limestone quarry. The wine is fermented and aged in stainless steel.
"This could easily pass for a very good Vaillons with its aromas of white pepper, cool mineral reduction and airy floral and oyster shell nuances. There is both excellent volume and punch to the intensely mineral-driven medium weight flavors that conclude in a chiseled, moderately austere and beautifully long finish. It is rare to find a villages-level delivering this level of quality and it is highly recommended, plus it should repay even extended keeping." (Burghound, 91 Points)
