History

An appellation grown in 14 Côte de Beaune villages. The wine is exclusively red, and the vineyards extend over 45 hectares.

100 % Pinot Noir.

Terroir

Brown limestone soils, with red stones, ferruginous oolites, yellow limestone, marls, clay, and sand. Vines are planted on varied slopes, often fairly inclined, with a south-eastern and southern exposure and at altitudes from 180 to 280 meters.

Vinification and maturing

The grapes are hand harvested and then destemmed.
Vinification in wooden vats followed by maturing in barrels for around 10 months, 20% new oak.

Tasting notes

Colour: A brilliant garnet red
Nose: Red berry fruits (cherry), spices and a discreet woodiness
Palate: An elegant wine, soft and pleasant, presenting a fat, strong attack with mature tannins. This is a supple, fine and elegant wine.

Wine and food pairing

It will be the perfect companion to the traditional Burgundian dishes made with pinot noir sauce such as poached eggs « œufs en meurette », but also grilled lamb cutlets, donkey meat sausage, a spicy pizza, roasted beef or creamy cheese.

Ageing potential

This wine can be enjoyed now or it can be kept for up to 2 to 4 years in optimal conditions.
