From the moment it is opened, this Pinot Noir displays its character: black cherry, ripe raspberry and a touch of violet invite themselves on the first nose. In the background, a subtle spicy weave blends white pepper and delicate woodiness. On the palate, precision and tension dominate, carried by silky tannins. The long, elegant finish leaves a lovely freshness enhanced by a hint of liquorice.

Technique

Viticulture

This 1.51 hectare parcel is located in the south of the appellation. The vines are around fifty years old on average and are the result of a massal selection. It is regularly planted with other vines. The terroir is clay-limestone, rich in iron oxide (red earth). The average yield is 35-40hl/hectare.

Oenology

The estate harvests by hand. The grapes are sorted, destemmed and not crushed. They are then vatted by gravity in stainless steel vats. Fermentation is carried out using indigenous yeasts, in closed vats, with moderate punching down and pumping over. The vatting period is long, depending on the vintage (18 to 25 days). The wine is aged in barrels in a cold cellar, with 20 to 25% new wood, exclusively from 500-litre barrels. The wine is then racked by gravity one month before being bottled without filtration.
