Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Presentation
Pinot Noir is the king of grapes in Burgundy. It is also a pure paradox as growers and winemakers alike fear it almost as much as they worship and pamper it. This elegant, demanding grape is, without a doubt, the most difficult variety to grow, vinify and mature. It demands an unparalleled degree of attention and precision; an intuitive understanding from those who work with it.
Terroir
This Bourgogne Pinot Noir is made principally from grapes grown in the southern part of Burgundy where high levels of limestone and marl in the soils combine with ideal ripening conditions to give the wine its seductive appeal.
