The vines take their roots on clay-limestone soil, very well suited to Pinot Noir, at Légny in the Pierres Dorées. The grapes are mostly vinified in whole bunch. This gives a fruity, crunchy wine with richness and structure.
Brilliant ruby red color.
Offering up notes of raspberries, cherries and dried flowers.
Medium-bodied, ample and succulent, with a fleshy core of fruit, melting tannins and an open-knit, charming profile. It's a creditable wine.
Perfect for the Antilliean and Asian lightly spiced cuisine as well as for all the types of red and white meat, Lyon region cuisine such as andouillette, roasted bunny and the chocolate desserts.
