Pinot noir - Le Muid Montsaugeonnais

Our terroirs, located in Vaux-sous-Aubigny, Montsaugeon, Rivières-les-fosses and Chatoillenot, are particularly well suited to the cultivation of vines and owe their quality to both the composition of the soil and its exposure. Our 4 grape varieties - Pinot noir, Gamay, Chardonnay and Auxerrois - flourish there and offer us their flavors.

Since the creation of the Muid Montsaugeonnais, Dominique and Isabelle, our winegrowers, as well as their teams, have given the vineyard a real identity. This know-how has been recognized and rewarded several times (Salon de l'Agriculture, Guide Hachette des vins, etc.).

Since 2020, we continue our search for quality with the conversion to Organic Agriculture and the plot-based vinification, which will allow our wines to better reveal the quality of our terroirs.

The production, harvesting, vinification, bottling (carried out by a service provider) and storage (cellar and vats) are carried out on the farm.

Pinot noir :

• Terroir : clay and limestone soil
• Exposure : South-East
• Average age of the vines : 18 years
• Tasting: with Pinot Noir, we discover two different flavors. One, transmitted by a wine matured in stainless steel tanks, and the other from oak barrels. The first one, elaborated in a traditional way, will be served at a temperature of 18°C and can be consumed young, after 12 months of maturation. In the mouth, we find notes of red fruits. Its tannic structure and its freshness will accompany meat. Nevertheless, it can also wait a few years in the cellar, to improve... As for the one matured in oak barrels (228 liters), structured by a very ripe matter and asserted tannins, a small pause of a few years in cellar is preferable.
