This magnificent parcel of Grand Cru was offered to the Hospices in 1976 by Jean Collignon and named in memory of his mother. It is found at the heart of the hillside in the Mazis Hauts, on the same slope as the Chambertin Clos de Bèze, a neighbouring parcel.
More than two thirds of the Cuvee come from old vines planted in 1947. This no doubt contributes to the remarkable density of the wine, to the silkiness of its tannins, as well as its length on the palate, which is regularly exceptional.
Since its foundation during 15th Century by Nicolas Rolin and his wife Guigone de Salins, the Hospital has beenfunded by legacies and gifts ; and became a beautiful vineyard estate.
From 1859, the wines of the Hospices are sold by auction to improve the new hospital and keep the old buidings like « Hôtel-Dieu ».
