Regular price
Producer: Henri Chauvet
Region: Auvergne
Grapes: Pinot Noir
Style: Red
ALC: 13%
Size: 150cl bottle
Notes: MAGNUM From two plots: one large plot on the hillside which has volcanic soil, and a smaller parcel which is a mix of volcanic soil with blue marl. 10 to 12-day wholebunch maceration in stainless steel. Elevage is 12 months; 50% in a relatively new 500L Alsatian foudre, and 50% aged in old 228L barrels. This has some of that classic Pinot spice and more savoury notes, with soft tannins and some light fruit. This has great potential to age.
