WINE DESCRIPTION

The wine comes from the Beaune 1er Cru appellation, which is known for producing some of the finest wines in Burgundy. The Epenottes vineyard features a unique terroir with limestone and clay soils, which are particularly suited for pinot noir. The winemaking process involves careful selection of the grapes, gentle pressing, destemming and aging in oak barrels (ca. 30% new) to enhance the wine's complexity and depth. The resulting wine is elegant and refined, with a beautiful balance of fruit, acidity, and tannins. It is a perfect representation of the classic Burgundian style, and a must-try for any wine enthusiast.

NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER

On the nose, delicate aromas of red cherries, ripe raspberries, and hints of violet dance gracefully with subtle notes of earth and forest floor.Layers of red fruit, including cranberries and strawberries, are complemented by nuances of baking spices, tobacco, earth and a touch of minerality. The palate is a symphony of elegance and depth, with vibrant acidity intertwining seamlessly with velvety tannins. It shows a firm tannic structure and notes of cinnamon, licorice, and dark chocolate. The finish is long and elegant, with a lingering sense of sweet fruit and spice.
