Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Terroir
Our vineyard of Bourgogne Pinot noir is made of several plots located in PremeauxPrissey. Vines have been planted between 1956-1965. Grapes are receiveing the exact same care as the others grapes classified in Premier Cru, making it a qualitative wine. Surface : 2,97 hectares. (7,18 acres) Climat & Soil : Clay and limestony soil with clay predominance.
Winemaking and Aging
To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested and sorted out by hand. Before beginning the alcoholic fermentation we make a cold prefermentation during 4 to 6 days to work on the phelonic component's exctraction. Grapes are previously partially destemmed. Then full maceration lasts for 15 days during which we'll use only pigeages (punching the cap). Intensity and numbers are lead to the concentration of tannins, perfumes and colour. Alcoholic fermentation is realized with natural yeasts. After maceration, free and press wines are separated for aging. Aging process is taking place 100% in traditional Burgundian 228 liters barrels (8% new oak) during 11 months + 5 months in stainless-steel tanks. We only use French oak coming mainly from Bourgogne, Allier and Vosges forests.
Tasting notes
EYE: Intense and deep red shiny colour.
NOSE: The first nose is rather discreet with an earthy character. Then, it opens on fresh red fruits (cherry) and peperry-mint aromas.
PALATE: The palate is ample and long, thanks to the elegant and totally integrated tannins.
