Beaune 'Cent Vignes' 1er Cru

The Beaune Premier Cru 'Cent Vignes' has bright, red fruit on the nose, perfumed with violet flowers and steely graphite notes. On the palate, this is a serious wine, well structured with firm tannins and a more savoury and meaty character. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts took place in stainless steel tanks where a combination of gentle pump overs and punch downs were employed as necessary. The wine was matured in 100% French oak barriques, 30% of which were new, for 14 months. The wine was racked only once before it was bottled unfined and unfiltered. ABV 13%
