For the Village Pinot noir, we select the vineyards which have not yet reach full maturity, young vineyards tend to show more varietal character which is what we want to express in this wine. Extensive individual berry sorting was done by hand prior to destemming without crushing. The whole berries were transferred
without pumping to the fermentation tanks. The fermentation started spontaneously. After the completion of the fermentation and pressing the wine was transferred to older French oak barrels.
