Intensity
From biodynamic agriculture, this Vougeot wine can be enjoyed now or in a few years.
More infoThe Pinot Noir that makes up this cuvée was planted between 1901 and 1981, enjoying the influence of chalky soil rich in pebbles and limestone. 80% of these vines come from massal selection, and all have been grown organically since 1997. The domain progressed to biodynamic production in 2001. Yields are limited to 14hl per hectare.
In the cellar, the grapes are vinified in whole harvests and transferred to vats using gravity. They macerate in the cold for 5 days before undergoing a vertical pressing. The wine is matured for 16 months in casks (with up to 18% new wood), then for a further month in vats.
In the glass we find a ruby red wine with an aromatic bouquet of red fruit (raspberry, cherry, redcurrant) and flowers (violet). Its palate is structured by delicate tannins. We recommend waiting a few years before savouring this wine with strong cheese or a pumpkin gratin.
