Vaucher Pinot Noir 2021 (12 per case)

“Vins de France” can be produced throughout the whole of France using grapes harvested exclusively within its borders. This quite new appellation (2009) allows for a greater liberty in winemaking compared to the appellation system. It is a great opportunity for our winemaker to express his skills with a wine with a steady style and unique personality.

Bright red garnet.

Delicate aromas of cherry and coffee with subtly integrated toasted notes.

Appealing and fruity with delicate toasted notes and a medium body. Flavours of chocolate are emphasised by a hint of menthol, lying on silky tannins. The finish is long with assorted fruit flavours and a subtle touch of oak.

The grapes were harvested mechanically, a great way to ensure a pre-fermentary maceration period that will give a wine with brighter color and fresh fruity aromas. After that 4-days period, the harvested plots were vinified separately with a long fermentation of at least 3 weeks. The tank fermentation process ended with a post-fermentary maceration of 7 days at hot temperature to refine the tannins. Then, the wine is aged for 4 months on fine lees, in stainless steel tanks to keep the fruit and freshness of the grape.

The perfect match for all meats, barbecues, pizzas and assorted vegetables.
