Notes
VINEYARD: Plot of old vine Pinot Meunier where the vines are at average 30 years old..

VINIFICATION: Manuel harvest followed by traditional press. The cépage is an innovative blend of 30% macerated Meunier, 10% still red Meunier, and 60% white wine (immediately pressed Meunier). By blending these different facets of Pinot Meunier, the wine achieves a balance of complexity, fruit, structure, and freshness. Alcoholic fermentation occurs in vats, foudres and barrels. Partial malolactic fermentation. Aging on lees for 6 months. Disgorged by hand in December 2020. Dosage: 2.5 Gr/l.
