- A well-structured and classic red Burgundy. Aromas of cherry and raspberry lead to a silky, fleshy palate of wild strawberry enveloped in firm tannins on the finish.
Harvested manually, the grapes underwent a careful manual sorting prior to a traditional Burgundian vinification. The grapes were destemmed and fermented in open vats using natural yeasts. The wine underwent pigeage (punching-down of the cap) or pumping-over, once per day, to extract the desired level of colour, flavour and fine tannins. Ageing took place for 14 months in French oak, of which 30% was new, where it underwent slow malolactic conversion. The wine was bottled by gravity without fining or filtration.
