La Cave Wine and Spirits
Dm Lebruiel Rouge 2017
750ml
Jean-Baptiste Lebreuil owns 2.5 hectares of Bourgogne Pinot Noir. The average of the vines is 35 years. All harvesting is done by hand. This parcel is picked last, 7-10 days after the smaller parcels at lower altitude and on richer soils, which are the first sites to be picked. The fruit is entirely de-stemmed and given an 8 day cold maceration period to enhance the wine's color and aroma. The Lebreuil family estate dates back to 1935, when present winemaker Jean-Baptiste Lebreuil's grandparents purchased two hectares of vines. JB Lebreiul’s aim is to produce vividly fruity Savigny-les-Beaune wines with great finesse and soft tannins. Farming practices: organic with biodynamic since 2011. Lively bing cherry notes with hints of rose petals, raspberry coulis, dark spices and slight earth. With good texture and classic ripeness, this is a perfect wine for enjoying now
