Production notes
Harvested at full phenolic maturity, the Pinot Noir berries undergo pre-fermentation cold maceration to preserve the freshness of their aromas, followed by gentle extraction of color and tannins to ensure a supple structure. The wine is then aged for 6 months in stainless steel tanks to preserve all its freshness.
Tasting notes
Petite Perrière Pinot Noir has a lovely, intense ruby-red color. The nose is typical of Pinot Noir, expressing red fruit and cherry, coated with violet. The attack on the palate is full and greedy. It evolves on a nice volume and ends with a long fruity and slightly camphorated finish with well-melted tannins. This Pinot is best appreciated in its youth, when it will reveal plenty of fruit and freshness. Wine and food pairing: La Petite Perrière Pinot Noir is a wine for sharing, conviviality and friends. Everyone loves it! Drink it as an aperitif with a mixed charcuterie and cheese board, or with warm, convivial meals.
