Because the clos is small and the walls are tall, they block the cooling winds and bounce the sun's heat back onto the vines — a microclimate that ripens early and gives slightly lower acidity, yet still yields a wine with elegance and the structure to age. The soil is a clayey limestone with white marl, noticeably different from the redder, lower ground of Clos de la Bousse d'Or immediately to the north; the two may once have been a single vineyard, and nobody is quite sure when or why the dividing wall went up.
