2010 Blanc de Noir

TASTING NOTE
Delicate fruit aromas touched by a light kiss of pear skin. Very fresh and mineralic on the palate with a complex structure. A wine with an elegant and luscious finish.

WINEMAKER’S NOTE
Pinot fruits originally scheduled for a redwine were pressed gentle as whole clusters. This wine was not aged in oak to keep the colour as bright as possible. The fermentation took several weeks, using a special sparkling wine yeast. In spring 2011 there was the malolactic fermentation giving the wine a beautiful elegance and harmony.
