BENEDICTINS ROUGE 2022

100% Pinot Noir

Soil: Clay-limestone. Kimmeridgian marl

Maceration and alcoholic fermentation for 10 to 15 days in temperature-controlled stainless steel vats, gentle extraction.

Malolactic fermentation and aging in oak barrels for 12 months.

The nose is fully expressed. First, it reveals ripe, even jammy red fruits (blackcurrant, blackberry). The aging notes are also present, with aromas of caramel, cocoa, vanilla, and then roasted coffee.

The attack is supple. The palate is smooth and offers a lovely creaminess. The structure in the mouth is substantial, but with silky, well-coated tannins. The aromas of ripe fruit increase in intensity throughout the tasting. The slightly woody finish prolongs the sensations in the mouth.

Serving temperature between 15 and 17°C.

Enjoy with red meats, game and cheeses.
