History

This is a regional appellation, grapes of this appellation can be harvested throughout Burgundy but the grapes of our Bourgogne Pinot Noir are harvested essentially in the south of Burgundy (vineyards of the Mâconnais, Côte Chalonnaise).

Vinification and maturing

Fermentation in stainless steel tanks with daily pumping-over and soft strirring.
Maceration lasts roughly 2 weeks.
Partial ageing in oak barrels of 1 to 3 wines during 6 months in order to supple and round tannins.

The Weather : Uncertain conditions, but mild in the end throughout the season!

The harvest, running from 25 August to 16 September. The grapes were beautifully healthy, with varying degrees of ripeness depending on the exposure.

Balanced, honest white wines. Maturing ought to bring just the right degree of roundness to red wines with varying qualities, depending on the maturity of each plot. We have both sophisticated, fruity red wines with a good Burgundy tension as well as rich, warmer ones.

A pleasant vintage in terms of quality with excellent yields for both whites and reds.

The vinification choices have been crucial as to whether to favour acidity or the alcoholic degree.
