Why Cave selected it

Pure, whole‑bunch Burgundy from a sought‑after natural producer; vibrant red fruit, gentle structure and no‑nonsense winemaking make it a versatile, characterful red.

About the wine

Pinot Noir is whole-bunch macerated for approximately three weeks. There are no pump overs and only one pigeage is done at the end of maceration. Renaud is not looking for extraction or colour, instead choosing purity and favouring. Unfilterd, unfined, no sulphur.

* Please note that because there is limited stock of this wine it is not subject to any further discount.
