The Wine:
En Guesnes’ is made up of two distinct parcels, separated by premier cru ‘Meix Cadot.’ East-facing, the plot’s soils are rich in clay. One smaller parcel planted in 1950; the larger one in 1978.
Hand-harvested, cold maceration for one week then fermented with indigenous yeasts in open-top wooden tanks. Aged for 12 months in French oak barrels (1/3 new), then six months in tank. Bottled unfined and unfiltered; all work follows the lunar cycle.
Aromas of raspberry, spring violets, baking spices. Juicy; energetic; concentrated. Red stone fruits, light pepper.
