Volnay 2018 - Chantal Lescure
VINE AND TERROIR:
This is a blend of three plots on 1.28 hectares. The terroir is deep clay and silt, resulting from hillside alluvium. The yield is about 35-40hl/hectare.
VINIFICATION:
We harvest by hand, in 25kg crates. Grapes are sorted, de-stemmed and not crushed. We then proceed to gravity vatting in 40 hectolitre stainless steel vats. The fermentation is soft and long, with indigenous yeasts, and the punching of the cap is moderate. The vatting period is long depending on the vintage (20 to 25 days).
AGING AND BOTTLING:
The wine is matured in barrels in a cold cellar. We use 30 to 40% new wood, exclusively brought in by 500-litre barrels. We rack one month before bottling. We do not filter, we do not fining.
