2021 Petit-Roy Monthélie 'Les Crays' pinot noir - Burgundy FRANCE 750ml
Pinot Noir from a 0.18ha plot of 25 year old vines, grown on clay and limestone. 3 day cold soak and then 3-4 week whole bunch maceration. Aged in used barrels for 12 months, then left to settle in tank for 3 months. Not fined or filtered. Minimal SO2.Very light colour. Pure strawberry perfume with integrated cinnamon, roses and cocoa dust. Lovely notes of salt in the background. Light, but has quite intense red fruits and spice. Heavenly. Texture is dreamy and smooth – linear but filled at the seams. Completely resolved tannins. Refined, salty length. Another red that suits daytime or warm weather. These are all great with a slight chill too.
