Le Clos de Jeanne is a gently sloping single parcel that faces east. It is located between the house of Domaine Ferret and the village church. This parcel, the smallest among those that produce the Têtes de Cru and Hors Classe cuvées, covers 0.69 hectares right next to the domaine's buildings. Since 2020 vintage, and the Premiers Crus arrival in our appellation, this wine, situated in the heart of 1er Cru "Les Perrières", change his name in honor of Jeanne Ferret's mind. The plot is still the same. Half the vines just reach 35 years old, while the rest just turn their 50th birthday. These deep sandy loams are derived from sedimentary clays and don't contain any stony material. The bedrock features seams of limestone and marl-limestone.

Then the ageing ends in stainless steel tank always with all their lees for another 9 months.

Fermentations and ageing take place in casks of which 25% of cask new, 75% of cask from 1 to 3 wines for 10 months.

A detailed identification of the very best terroirs is the basis for vinification focused on individual parcels, a concept that helped spread the fame of the domaine far and wide. This classification, established by Jeanne Ferret, saw the creation of the 'Tête de Cru' and 'Hors Classe' cuvées. Another of her early initiatives was the domaine bottling of the wines, which was not the norm at the time. Her daughter, Colette, continued working in the same vein, and also put in place a focus on the maturation of the wines. When Maison Louis Jadot acquired the 18-hectare property in 2008, the aim was to continue to work along the lines established by the Ferret family. Audrey Braccini is the guardian of its traditions.
