Grape variety

100% Pinot Noir. Certified Organic.

Origin

This Pinot Noir comes from altitude clay-limestone plots in the Languedoc region,
organically grown in the Limoux hills, in the piedmont of the upper Languedoc. The
grapes are harvested in the morning in order to preserve their freshness.

Vinification

After total destemming, vinification takes place partly in traditional concrete vats
and partly in stainless steel vats, with a long vatting period of 2 to 3 weeks.

Ageing

Part of the ageing is then carried out in concrete vats and the other in wooden vats
with temperature control during the summer.

Tasting notes

Lovely crimson shade within a light colour typical of the grape variety. Expressive
and characteristic aromas of red and blue berries (raspberry, grenadine,
blueberry). The light touch of oak is well integrated and complemented by a hint
of menthol and rhubarb. The wine is round, velvety and well-balanced on entry
to the palate, with a nice acid structure responsible for the finesse and elegance
of the Pinot Noir. It finishes with elegant, fresh and spicy tannins and a lovely
luscious sweetness.

Wine and Food

This Pinot Noir is a convivial wine to be enjoyed with barbecues, charcuterie
and grilled poultry.

Serving suggestions

Between 8 and 10°C.
