The history of Naudin Ferrand dates back to the beginning of the 20th century, when Claire Deroye convinced her husband Henri Naudin to purchase some vines in Burgundy. This passion passed from generation to generation, and in 1994 it was Claire Naudin took up the family estate. Today, the domain spans 22 hectares and respects responsible agriculture. This family domain has vineyards covering the Hautes Côtes, in the regional appellations of Hautes-Côtes de Beaune and Haute-Côtes de Nuits. Chardonnay is grown here for the white wines, and Pinot Noir for the reds. Gamay and Aligoté are also cultivated by the domain. According to Claire Naudin, viticulture is something you should live without fear of experimenting, for example with biodynamics. This approach has allowed her to create elegant and pure cuvées with much freshness and depth. They offer a lovely illustration of Burgundy's terroirs.

The Pinot Noir vines, an unmissable Burgundian grape variety, grow on slightly sloping soils with an easterly exposure. The cuvée is the perfect blend of a third of 110-year-old vines, together with 60-year-old Pinot Noir vines. To preserve the fruit, the Pinot Noir grapes are harvested and sorted entirely by hand. In the winery, vatting is carried out on whole bunches of grapes, with no added sulphite. After five days of intracellular fermentation, the ten-day alcoholic fermentation begins, before the wines are matured on their lees. After filtration and a slight addition of sulphite, the red wine is finally bottled.
The garnet colour reveals a nose characterised by strong floral aromas combined with notes of undergrowth. On the palate, the fullness of red fruit is perfectly complemented by the velvety tannins. The finish is long and delicious.
