Cuvée Empreinte Brut 1er Cru
The best expression of Pinot Noir from 3 early ripening chalky clay plots with some flint (Barremonts, Demoiselles, Houtrants), in the heart of Cumières. Vines average 30 years of age. Vinified plot by plot in oak barrels: 80% in tuns and the remainder in demi-muids and barriques. Minimum 5 years maturation on lees with a dosage of 1g per litre.
Tasting Note: Aromas of red currant, strawberry, red apple, and citrus with hints of flower, almond, and chalk mineral on the nose. Good fullness and volume on the palate with a deep core of red berry & orchard fruit, lively bubbles, taut acidity, and good length with chalk mineral on the finish.
