Domaine de la Borde - Pinot Noir sous la Roche 2019
Domaine de La Borde is located in the towns of Pupillin and Arbois in the Jura. The 5-hectare estate is managed by Julien Mareschal with respect for the terroir. The vineyard has been certified in organic farming since 2012, and biodynamic preparations are applied to all the vines. The local grape varieties are cultivated on plots whose soils and exposure reflect the typicality of each.
The Pinot Noir Sous La Roche comes from vines cultivated on a clay-limestone terroir on deep gray marls, facing south-west with a steep slope and at an altitude of 500 meters. The harvest is manual then destemmed. The semi-carbonic maceration lasts 20 days, including 2 days of cold pre-fermentation maceration and some pumping over. Aging lasts 10 months, in 228-litres barrels for 3 to 5 wines.
Grape variety: 100% Pinot Noir
