Made from 100% Pinot Noir, sourced from limestone and granite soils in the Mâconnais, for example around Dom. de Ruère. On the nose, aromas of red and black fruit stand out, with floral accents such as peony. On the palate the wine is exceptionally well balanced: round fruitiness combines with soft tannins, fresh acidity and a subtle minerality. The structure is refined, with a length that enriches the medium-bodied character and lingers long, perfectly balanced between elegance and fruit expression
