Parcelles D'Exellence Pinot Noir
This wine, with its perfect balance of aromatic power and minerality, has a true southern identity. It has also inherited the style and character of the great Pinot Noir wines produced for decades by Labouré-Roi.
Wine Production
Sourcing and selection of grapes, musts and juices. Separate vinification of each selected batch. After a pre-fermentation cold maceration to enhance colour intensity and fresh fruit, the individual plots are then vinified separately at a moderate temperature to preserve their character and aromatic freshness. Vatting ends with a post-fermentation hot maceration to refine the tannins and develop the texture.
Tasting Notes
Garnet-red. Fine, fresh, delicate bouquet with notes of Morello cherry and sweet spices. Full-bodied and robust, with fine flavors of red fruit and sweet spices. Long, fresh finish.
Food Pairing
Ideal with lamb or veal, and even tofu. This wine also goes very well with cold meats, barbecues, mechoui and cheeses.

About the Vineyard
The mainly south-facing vines benefit from maximum sunshine and are planted on clay-limestone soils in 3 different areas: the foothills of the Montagne Noire (Minervois), at the foot of the Cévennes (in the north of the Gard département) and in the upper Aude valley.
