Production Details Hand-harvested in open-work crates and carefully sorted when necessary; totally destemmed; fermented and macerated for 2–3 weeks in small open vats with punch-downs and pump-overs; matured for 12–16 months in oak. Enotria describes a 1 ha biodynamically cultivated estate component with sélection-massale vines and yields 20% below the permitted level. Its grape table says 100% Pinot Noir while its vinification text says mainly Pinot Noir, so the percentage remains unresolved.
Tasting Notes Véronique Boss-Drouhin: purple colour; delicate strawberry and red-currant aromas; fine, rounded tannins and an elegant finish
Food Pairing Roast pork with sea-salted crackling and seasonal vegetables
