2017 Technical Specifications
Alcohol 12.5%
Grape Varieties 100% Pinot Noir
Region Aloxe-Corton
Soil Clay and pebbles
Fermentation Vessels Wooden vats
Natural Yeast Yes
Production Details Fruit came from the 1-hectare Le Suchot vineyard planted in 1985. Grapes were gently trodden by foot while avoiding seed crushing. Natural alcoholic fermentation lasted 5–7 days in wooden vats; the printed temperature notation is “33,34,” followed by a gradual fall to 24°C. The wine was transferred to stainless-steel tanks for settling and then matured in oak barrels. Recommended service is 14–16°C, with cellaring suggested for more than 10 years.
Tasting Notes Robert Parker: cassis and rosehip aromas; medium-bodied, with juicy fruit and structured tannins.
