Description
Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2021 Domaine Chardigny
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Certified organic
The terroir is the same as in Bourgogne Chardonnay, therefore the soil is similar in everything.
Grapes are grown in several vineyards within the Burgundy appellation south of Mâcon on the border between Burgundy and Beaujolais.
The hill where the vineyards reside has a marvelous view, on one side of the Saône plain and on the other the imposing Mont Blanc.
Soil: the soil is clayey, sandy and rich in silt.
The vines were planted in 2015 on land that had been uncultivated for ten years.
After the harvest, carried out manually, it carries out alcoholic fermentation with maceration on the skins, in the Burgundian manner. The grapes are partly de-stemmed and partly left with the rachids. Percentage of the two quantities changes according to the vintage. The fermentation and aging containers are exclusively made of stainless steel.
Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2021 Domaine Chardigny
Ruby red color.
The nose has clear and clean aromas of fresh fruit and flowers. The classic red and white currant is followed by notes of raspberries and pomegranate. For the flowers we can observe the petals of red rose and geranium. Undergrowth ideas also increase complexity.
On the palate it has a remarkable freshness brought by the acidity, but at the same time also of adequate creaminess. Balanced and harmonious, it relaxes elegantly, wrapping the palate without weighing it down. In retro olfaction aromas of fresh fruit and aromatic herbs reach the nasal receptors.
Overall it is a Pinot Noir, with classic and well-defined aromas, with an agile and creamy palate. It can be recognized without hesitation, managing to satisfy those who drink it.
Excellent quality-price relation.
The Domaine Chardigny offers us this Burgundy from young vineyards, making it an excellent example of Pinot Noir vinified and aged exclusively in steel.
