    • Complete description

      Vintage Description:

      The nose opens up to Provence herbs of thyme and sage with honeyed undertones. The palate is ample, well-structured and shows lovely exuberance, freshness and youth. Lengthy persistency is driven by toasted almond notes. Wonderful potential. (Gilbert & Gaillard, 92/100 points)

      vineyard:

      Three pinot nero vineyards on the “Belvedere” estate, situated in the municipality of Iseo in the hills on the south side of Lake Iseo at 466 metres above sea level.

      Ertrag:

      7,000 kilograms, equivalent to 3,500 litres of wine (must-to-fruit ratio 50%).

      Ernte:

      Harvested by hand at August 17, 2007.

      Vinification:

      To make the base wine for Dosage Zéro Noir, it is crucial that the juice extracted - the must - should remain pale or slightly pink in colour. Pressing is performed at strictly low pressure so that the grapeskin is undamaged and does not yield its colour compounds. The resulting musts ferment in small oak barrels. Barrel maturation lasts for just five months. At the end of two further months’ ageing in steel, the three base wines from the three vineyards of provenance are blended.

      Ageing:

      Maturation on the lees for 8 years and 5 months. No added liqueur at disgorgement.

      Residual sugar:

      dry

      Alcohol level (%vol):

      12.5
