Les Parcellaires de Saulx Gevrey-Chambertin Premier Cru 'Fonteny' 2017

This wine hails from the esteemed Premier Cru vineyard of Fonteny in Gevrey-Chambertin, Burgundy, known for its limestone-rich soils and ideal sun exposure. The Pinot Noir grapes benefit from a continental climate, promoting balanced ripeness and acidity. Traditional winemaking techniques include fermentation in stainless steel to preserve fruit purity, followed by aging in French oak barrels, a portion of which is new, to add structure and subtle complexity. The resulting wine offers a harmonious blend of red fruit flavors, earthy undertones, and a refined tannic structure, suitable for both immediate enjoyment and further aging.
