Our wines

Monthelie 1er Cru «Les Vignes rondes»

  • Climat : Les Vignes Rondes
  • Grape variety : 100 % Pinot noir
  • Harvest : Hand-picked
  • Ageing potential : Over 10 years (a wine with great ageing potential).
  • Food and wine pairings : Roasted or grilled red meats, meat in sauce or marinades, and matured cheeses.
  • Serving temperature : 15° to 18°C.
  • Tasting notes : A complex and elegant nose built around small red fruits, with notes of blackcurrant buds. On the palate, this is a powerful, round wine with great aromatic finesse. May be slightly oaked depending on the vintage.
  • Vinification : The grapes are transported in crates from the vineyard to the estate. After sorting on a selection table, the bunches are lightly crushed. Maceration is carried out with whole bunches, without punching down, relying solely on daily pump-overs to extract the wine’s aromatic and colour structure. The vatting lasts around 15 days, during which alcoholic fermentation takes place. Pressing is done in the purest Burgundian tradition, using a state-of-the-art press. The wines are then racked and transferred into barrels.
  • Ageing : Aged in oak barrels for 18 to 24 months in our cellars (malolactic fermentation completed). Bottled at the estate.
