Grapes: Pinot Noir
Region: Burgundy, France
Vintage: 2024
Viticulture: Organic
Soils: Fossiliferous Bajocian Limestone Soil
Vinification: Grapes are crushed, long (6-hour) press cycle, ambient yeast fermentation with pied de cuve
Aging: We bottled when the residual sugar measured 9.5g/ liter. The pink color comes
from the Flottaison of Gamay in the Aligoté juice. We only produced 3 barrels this year, but we are very happy with the result, so will try to make a little more in 2023
Fining or Filtering: None
Sulfur: None added
Notes from the Importer: 2020 marked an exciting pivot for Tomoko and Guillaume, as they acquired several plots with incredible potential, mostly in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune. They farm these vineyards organically, using phytotherapy approaches researched and recommended by Eric Petiot, a pioneering plant scientist based in Lausanne.
The Pet Nat is not disgorged, it retains the yeast from the fermentation
and so is a little cloudy. With 11.5 alcohol, it’s very quaffable! The flottaison
maceration of Gamay makes a very fruity and enjoyable wine. Please serve chilled.
