Product notes
This unique vintage within the appellation comes from a clay plot, the Clos de Renardin, which takes the form of a small south-facing cirque, ensuring freshness and maturity for the Pinot Noir. This 109-row plot gives its name to the vintage.
Production notes
Hand-harvested, aged by gravity, with no added yeast. Ten percent of the wine spent six months in barrels, the rest in stainless steel vats. No malolactic fermentation.
Tasting notes
Bright pale pink color with silver highlights. Open nose, with notes of fresh and tangy red berries (redcurrant, raspberry, gariguette). Delicate notes of ripe citrus also emerge (pomelo, grapefruit). A spicy touch with hints of white pepper. The attack is fresh and elegant. The mid-palate, both vinous and refined, offers a freshness contained within a velvety texture. The finish is fresh and smooth, lingering with fresh and crisp fruit. Pair with fish and seafood.
