Climate |
After a very cold winter and a demanding spring, the hot summer was regularly interrupted by rainy intervals. It gave way early september to a bright and warm weather, that speeded up the maturation of the grapes. Harvest began in the last days of September under a bright sunshine. Long and careful macerations have allowed to enhance the fleshy texture and smooth and elegant tannins of the Pinot Noir. |
Soil composition |
Mix of Clay and limestone. |
Vinification |
Grapes enter the fermentation vats in whole bunches for improved temperature control, gradual release of the sugars, and a more refined tannic structure. Cold pre-fermentation maceration is followed by a long alcoholic fermentation for greater depth and expression of the wine's structural elements. |
Ageing |
Aging in oak casks during 16 months. |
Pairing |
To be enjoyed with white or red meat, grilled or roasted, games and all sorts of cheeses especially all the cheeses produces in Burgundy (Epoisses, Langres, Citeaux, Ami du Chambertin) |
