Description

Naudin Pere Et Fils Clos Roussots Maranges 1er Cru 2019

Grape Varietals & Region: 100% Pinot Noir grown on marly limestone soils from Maranges, a premier cru appellation of Burgundy, France

Taste Profile: Deep ruby color that shines brightly. On the nose, full of black fruits, notes of cherry, raspberry and blackberry. The scent of kirsch is also present, adding a layer of complexity. On the palate, supple with elegante tannins that provide a smooth mouthfeel. The fruits flavours are even more pronounced, with some ripe red berries. The finish leaves a lasting impression of fruit and spice that lingers long after the wine is gone.

Winemaking Process: After a manual harvest, the fruit is destemmed and underly fairly long fermentation in open vats. 19 days of skin contact, followed by pneumatic press with daily punch downs. Aged in barrel for 14 months, of which 20% are new

Elegant & Structured Reds

From Barolo to Bordeaux, these wines are steeped in tradition. The style covers a broad spectrum of flavor profiles, but tend to be elegant and structured and can be cellared for a long time.

These wines often have savoury tones of earth, bell pepper, tobacco, cassis, and are often medium to full bodied, with long finish & structured palattes

Malolactic fermentation

MLF is a process that results in reduction in acidity & the production of buttery texture & taste profile, often applied to more bodied styles of red & white wines
While not all creamy whites or rich fruity reds undergo MLF, and can adopt similar profiles from barrel ageing,
