This Fins Lieux n°1 cuvée from Maison Pehu-Simonet is the quintessence of Pinots Noirs harvested in 2015 on the "Les Perthois" plot in Verzenay Grand Cru.
2015 was perfectly in line with the continental trend of the decade, with a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer. Thanks to a cool late summer, ripening produced juicy, ripe, concentrated grapes - a spectacular vintage.
The vinification of this Blanc de Noirs is carried out partly in oak barrels from the Verzy forest, and also in 600-liter demi muids, in order to sublimate the great character of this wine.
Produced in small batches, the 3500 bottles of this wine then spend over 60 months in the Maison's cellars and are dosed at 1.5 g/L after disgorgement.
<pThis cuvée Fins Lieux n°1 has a deep gold color approaching a coppery hue.The nose is powerful, fruity and spicy, typical of this grape variety.
On the palate, we find orchard fruits but also exotic notes adding complexity.
