The Story
Blend: 90% Pinot Noir (including 15% red wine) and 10% Chardonnay classified Premier Cru
Ageing: 10 months in large oak casks. No malolactic fermentation.
Dosage: 9 g/l

This wine develops aromas of intense red fruits, including wild strawberries, wild raspberries, cherries and gooseberries. After a few minutes of aeration, a light floral fragrance awakens our senses with notes of linden and lilac. On the palate, the attack of red fruits is predominant and supported by the freshness of pink grapefruit. Delicate flavours of melon and vine peach enliven our taste buds during the tasting. The whole makes us discover a wine of great freshness, ample and very balanced.
