A light, structured and earthy Pinot Noir from the Jura - spicy, floral aromas, bright red cherry, blueberry, and brown spice, chalky minerality. Notes of forest floor, black cherry and dried herbs with leathery nuances.
100% Pinot Noir, traditionally vinified in old, very large oak barrels. Grown on limestone soils.
Vinification
At Domaine de Saint Pierre, the grapes are treated with the greatest care, farmed organically and using biodynamic practices. The very low yields achieved through rigorous vineyard management and are testament to the high quality of the wine. The grapes are sorted and only the healthiest grapes make it to the press.
\From harvest to bottling, Fabrice isn’t adding any inputs to the must or wine. Therefore, the wines don’t have any sulphur added. Once the grapes are pressed, the must is pumped into an oak vat. Once the fermentation is done, the wine is raked and returned to the oak vat to undergo its second fermentation and maturation for 13 months. The wine is then bottled without clarification or filtration.
