Bourgogne Pinot Noir

Our Bourgogne Pinot Noir will perfectly match with red meats or œuf meurette.

Our vineyard of Bourgogne Pinot noir is made of several plots located in Premeaux-Prissey. Vines have been planted between 1956-1965. Grapes are receiving the exact same care as the others grapes classified in Premier Cru, making it a qualitative wine. Surface : 2,97 hectares. (7,18 acres) Climate & Soil: Clay and limestony soil with clay predominance

After maceration, free and press wines are separated for aging. Aging process is taking place 60% in stainless steel tanks and 40% in traditional Burgundian 228 liters barrels.

To preserve their integrity, grapes are carefully harvested and sorted out by hand. Before beginning the alcoholic fermentation we make a cold pre-fermentation during 4 to 6 days to work on the phelonic component’s extraction. Grapes are previously partially destemmed. Then full maceration lasts for 15 days during which we’ll use only pigeages (punching the cap). Intensity and numbers are lead to the concentration of tannins, perfumes and colour. Alcoholic fermentation is realized with natural yeasts

Le Domaine des Perdrix was not a renowned estate until the Devillard family took its management in 1996. Robert Parker says about this acquisition that it proves the existence of undiscovered great quality terroirs among the Grands Terroirs of Côte de Nuits. The quality of the vineyards their rigorous management and vinification have established the Domaine des Perdrix as a renowned Domaine one of the best among the Grands Vins de Bourgogne.
