Les Jamelles, Pinot Noir, Rouge, 2024
Presentation
- Complex and well balanced : a blend of terroirs in the Aude and Hérault departments, with limestone soils and a Mediterranean climate, tempered by a higher altitude and maritime influences.
- Precision and balanced aromas inspired by Catherine Delaunay's Burgundian know-how.
Terroir
The grapes are sourced from four terroirs: the vines located in the Herault Valley’s mid-slope vineyards and in the foothills of the Pyrenees lend richness and opulence, while the vineyards in the Upper Aude valley contribute fruit, typicity and freshness, and those on the Aude River plain, length and structure.

Tasting
Endowed with beautiful ruby red colour, Les Jamelles Pinot Noir reveals a nose redolent of berries, floral notes and a delicate hint of oak and vanilla. It boasts gorgeous complexity on the palate.
Full-bodied, long and rich, its flavours of crushed red fruit (raspberry, cherry) and jammy plum are supported by well-integrated, rounded tannins. Influenced by her Burgundian origins, Catherine Delaunay offers a wine that is faithful to its varietal with aromas of red berries and a mineral touch that give it pleasing freshness and well-rounded tannins. The perfect balance!
