Description
Although he is sixth generation winegrower and winemaker, rising Burgundian star Pierrick Bouley is modifying the family domaine, introducing new methods in both the vineyards and winery to stunning effect. The grapes for his Cote d’Or Pinot Noir come from south/southeast facing slopes just below Volnay and although labelled as a humble Bourgogne AC, the wine is anything but ‘entry-level’. This incredibly generous Pinot Noir is wonderfully open, with a mixture of red and dark fruits that almost verge on New World opulence. Elegant and fresh with a beautiful balance on the long finish. Limited quantities available.
Grapes are harvested manually and hand sorted prior to a second sorting on a vibrating table. Fermentation starts in vats without the addition of Sulphur and is finished in barrel. Minimal SO2 is added at bottling to stabilise the wine, resulting in a wonderfully pure and fresh Pinot Noir.
