Menetou-Salon | Rouge | 2023

This Pinot Noir comes from Clos des Treilles, located on a sun-drenched hillside. The plot benefits from a clay-limestone soil typical of the Kimmeridgian period, ideal for this grape variety. Whole-cluster vinification, followed by 22 months of aging in barrels and tanks, results in a balanced texture and refined structure, capable of enhancing the aromas of Pinot Noir and pairing well with a wide variety of dishes.

The freshness of the south/southeast exposure and the precise aging process beautifully highlight the pure expression of Pinot Noir.
