Description
From a .76 ha parcel, which is about 30% of the total climat.
Here, too, there is a hint of green tea to the similar nose of spiced plum, dark pinot and violet scents. The sleek, beautifully detailed and vibrant flavours possess more volume even if they're not especially dense, all wrapped in an attractively textured, lingering and nicely complex finale. This is quite good in its understated fashion.

About this wine
Pinot Noir
Pinot Noir is probably the most frustrating, and at times infuriating, wine grape in the world. However when it is successful, it can produce some of the most sublime wines known to man. This thin-skinned grape which grows in small, tight bunches performs well on well-drained, deepish limestone based subsoils as are found on Burgundy's Côte d'Or. Pinot Noir is more susceptible than other varieties to over cropping - concentration and varietal character disappear rapidly if yields are excessive and yields as little as 25hl/ha are the norm for some climats of the Côte d`Or.
