Color: Deep colour with ruby reflections.
Nose: Intense evoking blackcurrant and other small red or black fruits, animal notes of musk and fur, and often liquorice when the wine has matured.
Palate: This wine impresses with its firm structure, velvety tannins and delicate texture. It has all the hallmarks of a great Burgundy: full-bodied, powerful, rich and fleshy.
Pinot Noir
Village appellation. The Gevrey-Chambertin appellation is located in the northern part of the Côte de Nuits. It is one of the largest wine-growing villages in Burgundy with 410 hectares of vineyards, 81 hectares of which are classified as Premier Cru. The appellation is harvested from the villages of Gevrey-Chambertin and Brochon. Only red wines made from Pinot Noir are produced in this vineyard.
Grapes are manually harvested, passed over a sorting table, crushed, de-stemmed and then left to ferment for about 18 days with 2 punch-downs and 2 pump-overs per day and then matured for about 18 months.
