First press juice from exclusively Premier and Grand Cru plots. 100% Pinot Noir from the Montagne de Reims and our vineyards in Mareuil-sur-Ay and Avenay-Val-dOr makeup this exquisite wine. Aged for five to seven years to develop maximum complexity and to highlight the secondary and tertiary aromas which are the hallmark of extended ageing on lees. Bright, pink gold in colour, with persistent and generous mousse.Luscious and fruit-driven with notes of pastry with fresh pear, almond and cinnamon.The palate is creamy and round with notes of praline, caramel and apricot jam. The finish is fresh with spicy hints of cinnamon and clove. A sunny wine, very representative of the year. Extra brut dosage (4.25 g/litre)
Paringa Estate Reserve Pinot Noir
Very bright colour; monolithic in proportion with more of everything, handled with great control; dark plum, bright cherry, allspice, game and charry oak intermingle for a heady mix of aromas; the palate relays this conviction with real depth and power on entry, and lightness returns as the flavours cascade from start to finish; needs much time, but will richly reward patience.
Jane Eyre Pinot Noir
Domaine Lamy-Pillot Blanches Fleurs
Domaine Lamy-Pillot Blanches Fleurs, Beaune Domaine Lamy-Pillot is a small family-run winery, established in 1973, which counts as relatively youthful for the region. The wines of Lamy-Pillot are consistent and drinkable in the very best sense. The Blanches-Fleurs is a joyful, fruit-forward Pinot Noir, best enjoyed in its youth. Bright and lively on the nose, with notes of luscious red cherry, raspberry, and a shower of white floral (thus Blanches Fleurs). On the palate, you will taste those vibrant fruits again, with honeyed tones, light spice, and soft tannins.
Bindi Darshan Pinot Noir
Bindi's Darshan Pinot Noir is sourced from their newer 2014 "high-density" vineyard planting. This block is planted at 11,300+ vines per hectare (composed of 4 different clones) and includes a “Crazy” 22,600 vines per hectare section, truly pushing the limits of extreme viticulture. Darshan, similar to the Original Vineyard, emphasizes fragrance and elegance, while Block 8 and Block 5 both exhibit shared characteristics of fruit richness and structural qualities. Fruit is fermented in open vats and matured in French oak barrels of which 35% are new for a period of 15-17 months.
