Grisant ’22 comes from southwest facing vineyards; old vines growing on limestone and clay soils. In this particular plot, picking starts early to achieve a fresh, juicy style of Pinot Noir. Although generally a warm year, hail in July meant plenty of sorting in the vineyard during harvest to ensure that only the healthiest grapes reached the winery. 

After carbonic maceration of around 4 days, the grapes were pressed while still retaining some sweetness. Aged in old barrels for 12 months followed by 6 months in stainless steel. A wine with well-balanced acidity and whispers of wild strawberries.
