Description
The soil:
Clay-siliceous with a lot of flint stones on the surface. Limestone at 20-30cm. 100% Pinot Noir
Winemaking:
Manual harvesting and destemming.
The grapes are put entirely in a stainless steel tank where they stay for 2 to 3 days at 4-6° temperature, pumping the juice over the pomace. This is the cold pre-fermentation phase to obtain the aroma precursor and then the fermentation takes place at a temperature of 18 to 22° for 8 days to preserve a maximum of fragrance.
Ageing on lees in vats for 5 months.
Food and wine pairings:
This is a very supple wine with very pronounced Morello cherry aromas. Ideal for meats and summer barbecues.
Storage: 2 to 5 years.
