 A term referring to a 'vineyard within a vineyard '. A micro-cru represents the heart or defining section of vines (often a small section of a block, representing a unique type of soil) within a well-situated vineyard that especially suits the vigneron's winemaking objectives. Micro-crus reflect the subtle variables-the natural twists and turns of soil, climate and aspect-within each site.
