Hospices de Beaune - Volnay 1er Cru - Cuvée Blondeau 2018

Pinot noir Bottle - 75 cl

In 1811, François Blondeau donated the bells of the Hospice de la Charité on rue de Lorraine in Beaune. He also had the church in Volnay restored and a school built. So that five elderly people could be cared for in perpetuity, he donated all his vineyards in Pommard and Volnay.

Dégustation : This wine has a beautiful, sparkling ruby colour. Its complex nose reveals aromas of wild red fruit, black fruit and Morello cherry. On the palate, it combines elegance and red fruit notes with fine, powerful tannins.

Description

In 1811, François Blondeau donated the bells of the Hospice de la Charité on rue de Lorraine in Beaune. He also had the church in Volnay restored and a school built. So that five elderly people could be cared for in perpetuity, he donated all his vineyards in Pommard and Volnay. This cuvée is made up of Taille-Pieds, Champans, Roncerets and Mitans. The Taille-Pieds parcel is located at the top of the hillside, with a white soil rich in small pebbles and very fine gravel.

Vinification

FermentationThe grapes are harvested by hand and placed in small crates to prevent the bunches from settling. For our red wines, the grapes are taken to the winery, passed through a sorting table and destemmed before being loaded into the vinification tank. Immediately, we proceed to a so-called “pre-fermentation cold maceration” which, by cooling the tank to 10°C, optimizes the extraction of the natural aromas of the grapes and oxygenates the musts. We favor long vatting times with daily punching down for 8 to 10 days to facilitate the extraction of tannins and colors. Finally, the final maceration lasts 3 to 5 days during which the must macerates gently at a controlled temperature to gain finesse and aroma.
