  The Pinot Noir here has been planted between 1970 and 1995. The terroir of this particular plot of land is notable for its high limestone content and thin soil. The commitment to organic viticulture is evident, even though official certification is not in place. When it comes to the winemaking process, the grapes are 100% de-stemmed, followed by a 10-day cold maceration. Subsequently, a 10 to 20-day fermentation with ambient yeast occurs within tanks. The wine is then aged for a period of 15 to 18 months in barrels, of which 20% are new. No fining or filtration processes are employed.
