From the estate
Cellaring potential: 2024 - 2040+
CHARACTERISTIC OF THE APPELLATION
The climat La Framboisière has been the Domaine's monopoly since 1933 and produces wines with a marked typicity: intense aromas of red fruit and a pleasant minerality. This emblematic parcel now lends its name to our Mercurey winery.
- Exposition: East
- Soil: Clay-limestone - shallow soil
- Grape Variety: Pinot Noir
- Surface Area: 10 ha 60 a 55 ca - (26.21 Acres)
- Year of Plantation: 1949, 1964, 1965, 1968, 1990, 2010
- Vinification and Maturing: The grapes are cut and sorted by hand. The proportions of de-stemming and whole grapes vary with each vintage. The grapes are punched down twice a day to extract their colour, tannins and aromas from the skins. After 15 to 19 days of vatting, the alcoholic fermentation is completed. The free-run wine is drained by gravity, while a slow and gentle pressing of the marc produces a press wine of great purity. For 13-14 months, we mature our wines in French oak barrels (20% of which are new) selected for their fine grain and their moderate toasting in our cellars with a natural and constant hygrometry and temperature.
- Tasting notes: This wine has a powerful and fruity nose, in which greedy aromas of red and black fruits are mixed with woody notes. On the palate, La Framboisière is a powerful wine with crisp red fruit flavours. With its velvety tannins and lingering finish, it is a real pleasure wine!
- Food pairing : Tournedos Rossini, hare stew with chestnuts, capon with morels, lemon and chocolate log.
- Ideal serving temperature: 14°C to 16°C
- Ageing potential: 4 to 8 years
