100% Pinot Noir – Extra-brut dosage
Vinified in 2010 with grapes from the “Les Chaillots” and “Les Hautes Vignes” plots, classified Premier Cru, this selection of the Domaine’s best Pinots Noirs d’Ecueil has been vinified in oak barrels made with wood from Ecueil forest. Through contact with the wood, the wine gains complexity, power and sweetness, balanced by the grape’s freshness and liveliness preserved by the absence of malolactic fermentation.

Our Extra Noir has a nicely intense straw-yellow colour. Effervescence is sustained yet dense, composed of very fine bubbles. The first nose reveals delicate vanilla notes, which evolve into generous pastry notes that give the wine roundness and maturity. In the mouth, the attack enchants with its softness and its rich, full-bodied, generous character. The finish explodes in the mouth with its freshness, liveliness and a touch of coated acidity.
