VINIFICATION & AGEING :

Hand-picked grapes at optimum ripeness and sorted Sorting table before filling into vats. Cold maceration for a few hours, vinification in open oak vats with pumping over and limited cap punching. Rather than a forced extraction, a gentle infusion, it is important that the grapes arrive in the vat at full maturity to obtain fine aromas. Spontaneous fermentation and ageing in oak barrels for 18 to 24 months.
The wines are neither filtered nor fined

TASTING :

The colour of the Cumières Rouge Traditionnel is a brilliant red with a typical Pinot Noir nose revealing hints of morello cherry. On the palate, it offers a blend of red fruits and silky tannins, creating a pleasant balance. It is versatile and elegant and goes well with a variety of dishes thanks to its fresh and fruity aromas but is also great on its own. Serve slightly chilled at 14-16°C to preserve its freshness and aromatic complexity.

ACCORDS :

The delicate structure of this Cumières Rouge makes it ideal to accompany white meats (roast veal, guinea fowl…). When served at a temperature of 12° C, it goes surprisingly well with some fish dishes, such as turbot with its jus.
