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.

These Pinot Noir vines, originating from an old plot planted between 1963 and 1992, are on average 40 years old. Growing on clay and limestone soils, they enjoy a perfect east-facing exposure. To preserve the fruit, the vines are harvested by hand before being completely destemmed. The grapes undergo a 15-day vatting period, including pre-fermentation and post-fermentation maceration, interspersed with several pump overs. Alcoholic fermentation is then achieved using 95% natural yeasts, followed by entirely natural malolactic fermentation. After ageing on the lees, the wines are bottled unfiltered.
The extremely expressive nose is marked by powerful red fruit aromas combined with hints of spice. The rich, elegant mouth reveals fine tannins leading to a delicious finish. This superb red wine can be enjoyed young, but also after several years of cellaring.
