Volnay Saint François

Pinot Noir from domaine parcels in Volnay that include roughly 25% from 1er cru sites. Vines average 55 years. Gentle macerations with some stem inclusion depending on the vintage, native yeast fermentation, matured in oak for 24 months on lees with 10-20% new barrels. Saint François is a proprietary wine with the name of Pascal’s father.

Tasting Note: 2017 - Slight reduction on open but opens up to aromas of strawberry, cherry, and cranberry with hints of rose, forest floor, baking spice, and lavender on the nose. Lovely richness on the palate with red/blackberry fruit & earthy notes, fresh acidity, fine tannin, great depth and very layered, good length on a spicy finish.

2018 - Aromas of strawberry, cherry, raspberry with rose petal, oak spices, forest floor, and oregano on the nose. Medium-bodied and broad on the palate, red-fruited core and mineral notes, fresh acidity, polished tannin, layered and nuanced, and hints of spice on a long finish.
