- A full-bodied Burgundy showing an exquisite combination of violets, roses, and wild strawberries. Oak spice, wild dark fruits, and velvety tannins add to the complexity of the palate with a long, elegant finish.
The grapes were hand-harvested with selective picking in the vineyard. The wine was vinified without the use of pumps in the gravity-fed winery. Cold maceration took place lasting one week, which was followed by fermentation lasting between 20 to 30 days. During fermentation, hand plunging and pumping-over took place to oxygenate the wine and extract the desired levels of colour, tannins and flavour. The wine was aged for 12 months in 100% new oak and was bottled without fining or filtration.

Winery | Pierre Naigeon believes passionately in sustainable farming. He looks to produce wines full of fragrance, revealing the natural terroir. The vines are grown in the Grand Cru vineyard of Charmes Chambertin, in a 25 hectare parcel of 60 year old, Guyot trained vines. The vineyards are meticulously managed with the use of organic fertilisers; no herbicides or insecticides are used. A sustainable approach is undertaken with ploughing, careful pruning and a green harvest. The vines are grown in clay and limestone soils, which have a significant presence of iron. |
