Description
Hautes Cotes de Nuits Pinot Noir Les Cabottes 2019 Domaine Cruchandeau
Variety: 100% Pinot Noir
Reasoned agriculture
Pale ruby red color.
The nose has conspicuous, intense, and elegant aromas of red currant, wild blackberry and cassis. Sweet spices stretch the neck to start showing themselves, softening the profile. Earthy smell, blood notes and even flowers do not let you wait. The choice to refine it exclusively in steel enhances the scents of fresh fruit, which become fleshy and rich. Over time the tertiaries will come to dominate the scene, for a wine with great prospects.
On the palate it is in excellent balance between the parts. Smooth tannins echo, between acidity and minerality. Excellent volume of the sip enriched by creaminess and warmth. Deep, both in remaining and in leaving an intense memory of oneself. The aromas are of blueberry, currant and flowers.
Overall, Julien Cruchandeau draws an excellent Pinot Noir, simple in intentions but refined in execution. Perfectly attributable to the territory of origin, and above all to the variety of belonging.

The term Cabottes in Burgundy indicates a stone construction within the vineyard, where the work tools were stored.
The grapes are grown in different vineyards within the Haute Cotes de Nuits appellation.
Soil is mainly calcareous and clayey.
After the harvest, carried out manually, it macerates on the skins at a cold temperature for 10 days. Alcoholic fermentation then begins, with repeated pumping over of the must on the cap of the marc.
Refine exclusively in stainless steel containers
