Christian Knott and Morgane Seuillot of Domaine Dandelion have two hectares of old vines in a patchwork of small plots around the village of Meloisey near St Romain. Viticulture is organic with some biodynamics - Christian and Morgane spray raw milk on the vines instead of sulphur and eschew any machinery in the vineyards, preferring to employ their trusty horse. Once harvested by hand, the grapes are pressed in an old wooden screw press and aged in neutral oak under their house before bottling without filtration or sulphur.

Sur La Plage stylistically sits between last year's Rosie Red, and the Hautes-Côtes - picked from the Vigne de Rose parcel – a site of Pinot Noir planted over sandy soils in the 1960's – that Dandelion vinified as Rosie in 2022.
