Daily light pumping-over. 

14 months of maturing in traditional French oak barrels, one third of new oak. Malolatic fermentation started lately in spring.
Bottling December 2021

A great climate in a great vintage. It will need time to open up completely. This cherry red wine reveals a complex and delicate nose of fresh grapes and black fruits. Fleshy, the mouth offers accents of spices and vanilla. The tannins are melted, the finish persistent. A very pure expression of Pinot Noir.
