Vinification of the Clos de la Roche Grand Cru by François Feuillet

This wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Pinot Noir. For this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from François Feuillet, only immaculate grapes were used. The Clos de la Roche Grand Cru is a Old World wine through and through, as this Frenchman breathes an exceptional European charm that clearly underlines the success of wines from the Old World. After being harvested by hand, the grapes are brought to the press house as quickly as possible. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in small oak barrels at controlled temperatures. The fermentation is followed by maturation on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
