The wine
Description
100% Pinot Noir from handpicked grapes ; raised in oak casks.
Taste
With a dark red colour, the nose is deep with a complexe range of aromas ripe: red fruit, sweet spices. The palate is powerful and sound. While aging the « sauvages » aromas will get more and more remarkable as the wine will be at it's best.
Serving temperature
15/16°C. It is recommended to decant recent vintages so as to enhance the aroma.
The vintage
- The end of the winter was very cold ; nice weather early april was the best contitions for buds to come out ; end of may, the vines are in bloom. Hot and dry conditions in july and august helped the grapes mature quickly. We started harvest on the 31st of august on Beaune Clos des Mouches white. Dark in colour, cassis or blackcurrant aromas, rich and concentrated sensation in the mouth, well balanced acidity and full tannins.
