100% Pinot Noir from 1.16 ha from the Lieux dits Les Maladieres in Nuits St Georges. (situated just below the Village plot of the same name, in the southern part of the village) Located at 220/230m of altitude. Marl and limestone soils, with a rocky top soil. Age of the vines: 45 years old.
The grapes are 100% destemmed and lightly crushed, followed by a pre-fermentation, cold maceration of 7 days, and fermentation with punch downs and pump overs. The wine is pressed and transferred to barrels by gravity, and ages for 12 months in neutral oak barrels.
Tasting Note:
Pleasant aromas of cherry, blackcurrant and a very well-worked balance in the mouth.
This wine with very supple tannins remains of a finesse and a freshness of the most appreciable. Notes of liquorice will appear with a few years of aging.
