Wines inspired by the spirit of place - ‘L’esprit de lieu’. Authentic, crafted small batch wines. The vineyards are planted in the foothills in the south of France, in the Haute Vallee of Limoux which are the cooler sites there and the best for Chardonnay and Pinot due to slower ripening and better levels of acidity.
Burgundian methods are used for the vinification with a gentle extraction by punch-down of the cap. Low temperature vatting (24°C) to preserve the fragile and subtle notes of the Pinot Noir. Maturation in stainless steel vats on fine lees with 10% aged for 3 months in new French Oak.
Red ruby in colour, the nose is aromatic with black cherries and elegant floral notes. On the palate, this Pinot Noir is silky and well balanced, with smooth tannins. Pairs beautifully with game dishes.
