Domaine Comte Senard is nestled in the heart of the charming Burgundy village of Aloxe-Corton. The vineyard was established in 1857 by Jules Senard, who passionately developed his two hectares of vines. Today it boasts ten hectares of vines, including eight hectares of Pinot Noir red grapes and two hectares of Chardonnay. Convinced that to produce great wines, quality raw materials are essential, the winemaker applies the same meticulous care in the cellar as they do in the vineyards. Well aware of the current environmental concerns and with a view to protecting biodiversity, they carry out each step in the vineyard with great respect for the soil and the environment and is currently in the process of converting to organic agricultural practices. After conducting harvests entirely by hand, the vinification process is carried out with minimal intervention and only minute amounts of sulphur are added to allow the fruit to express its full range of aromas. Domaine Comte Senard offers authentic vintages reflecting the exceptional terroir of Burgundy. 

Convinced of the benefits of organic viticulture for both vines and wine, Domaine Comte Senard strictly adheres to these methods in the vineyard. The Pinot Noir vines, around fifteen years old, are harvested exclusively by hand to preserve the quality of the fruit. In the winery, the destemmed grapes undergo a cold pre-fermentation process, with rigorous temperature control. Finally, the cuvée is aged for 18 months in oak casks, 60% of which are new, before being bottled.
The bright, clear purple colour reveals an expressive nose, characterised by intense aromas of black fruit such as blackberry. Fine tannins mingle with fruity aromas on the palate, delicately leading to a flavoursome, lingering finish. This 100% Pinot Noir cuvée has the potential to be cellared for up to fifteen years.
