100% Pinot Noir.
The vineyards are located in Nuits-Saint-Georges (Prémeaux side), Marsannay and Côtes de Beaune. The soils consist of mostly clay and marl mixed with stony limestone soils. The maceration process is 10% whole bunch, five days of cold maceration, one “pigeage” a day at the start of the alcoholic fermentation, then pump-overs during maceration for a gentle extraction. The wine spends 11 months in French oak (no new oak), followed by 3 months in vat, and the wine is never fined nor filtered.
It is a brilliant crimson colour, transparent and bright. The nose has a pretty red fruit and floral aroma, with hints of blueberries and cinnamon spice. The body is particularly supple with soft, sleek tannins. This should drink well from early on. Juicy and easy to drink.
