Echezeaux Grand Cru - 2015 - Philippe Pacalet

Pinot Noir from a parcel of 48-year-old vines on clayey-limestone soils and sandy soil rich in iron, facing southeast. Fruit of healthy organic farming, with a yield of 30 hl/ha. Vinification: whole grapes bunches, meticulously sorted, fermented without SO2, with cap punch downs twice a day for 4 weeks. Alcoholic fermentation with indigenous yeasts without artificial thermoregulation. Malolactic fermentation in barrels. Matured on lees in barrels under “reductive” conditions, without racking, but with stirring and zero SO2 for 16 months.
