Terroir

Sandy clay and limestone. The soils contain 20% sand, providing good aeration and drainage. The vineyard is situated at an altitude of 250 m, allowing a wide temperature range between day and night. This encourages the Pinot Noir grape to flourish and develop its distinctive character.

Vinification

Hand-harvested and rigorously sorted, this wine is carefully crafted to preserve the full finesse of the fruit. 85% of the grapes are destemmed, while the remaining 15% are incorporated as whole bunches, bringing freshness and complexity. Fermentation takes place at around 25°C over 15 days, with gentle punch-downs followed by daily pump-overs to achieve a precise extraction of colour, aromas and structure. After settling, malolactic fermentation takes place in concrete vats on clean wine, preserving purity, balance and elegance.
