The grapes yield a generous, refined, focused
wine with red berry fruit flavors
integrated with earth and mineral notes. The soils contribute to the elegance of this wine, which
is more feminine than powerful; the tannins are subtle and the mineral finish lingers.

About this wine

Description & facts

Les Vignots is in the northernmost part of the region with La Chanière premier cru directly to the south. The slope has southern exposure, allowing for full ripening of the Pinot Noir grapes. Old vines from the massale selection of Xavier’s grandfather are grown on a steep slope in clay and limestone soils. The grapes yield a generous, refined, focused wine with red berry fruit flavors integrated with earth and mineral notes. The soils contribute to the elegance of this wine, which is more feminine than powerful; the tannins are subtle and the mineral finish lingers.

Vinification
Pinot Noir is usually destemmed, except in warmer years when up to 20% of stems may be included, and native yeasts are used for primary fermentation in stainless-steel tanks. After four to five days of cold maceration, Xavier uses a combination of pump-over and punch-down for extraction. After pressing, the wines are transferred to barrels for malolactic fermentation for 12 to 14 months. Regional-level wines receive 15-20% percent new oak, village-level wines receive 25% new, and premier crus 30-35% percent.
