Vinification / Aging
The grapes are destemmed and vinified in vats for about 4 weeks, thus revealing all the richness of their aromas. After devatting, the wines are entered in oak barrels and aged for 15 months.
Tasting
Beautiful red color, clear, with ruby reflections, the nose opens on the typical red fruits of Pinot Noir (blackcurrant, morello cherry, and redcurrant) with smoky, humus and sometimes animal notes.
Food and wine pairing
Meats in sauces or grilled such as a good Angus filet in sauce, a Burgundy fondue and cheeses with character (époisses, coulommiers, etc.). With a few years, it will be the good companion for lamb, duck and game.
