 VARIETAL
 Pinot Noir
 TERROIR
 Calcareous clay soil
 Burgundy has historically been one of the oldest terroirs of reference for
 Pinot Noir wines.  
Our ‘Origines’ cuvée is crafted from grapes hailing from a mosaic of plots
 that overlie calcareous clay soil, with varying exposure and altitude. The
 diversity of these terroirs along with careful vinification and ageing allow
 the Pinot Noir grape to produce an aromatic, fleshy, refined wine.
 VINIFICATION/AGEING
 Fermenting maceration in thermoregulated stainless steel vats for 18 to
 20 days. 
Aging: 80% in stainless steel vats and 20% in oak barrels for 10 to 12
 months.
 TASTING
 Fresh, fine nose featuring notes of black and red fruit (raspberry,
 blackcurrant…). Fresh and fruity on the palate, this fleshy, supple wine is
 well balanced and boasts a pleasing fruity finish.
 SERVING
 Serve at 14-15°C (57-59°F).
 To taste young on the fruit or to keep 3 to 4 years.
 FOOD PAIRINGS
 Roasted or braised red and white meats
 Medium cheeses
