Production Details The components were vinified and matured separately. Pinot Noir was processed as whole bunches, while Poulsard and Trousseau were fully destemmed. Infusion-style macerations lasted approximately 18–20 days, followed by slow pneumatic pressing and 10 months in large oak barrels, foudres and stainless-steel tanks. Vinmonopolet additionally records hand harvesting, residual sugar below 3 g/L and acidity of 5.9 g/L; the sugar is a bound and the acidity basis is unspecified, so neither is mapped to an exact analytical field.
Tasting Notes Ripe red cherry, savory tea-leaf notes, pleasant grip, fresh acidity and floral tones
