A bit reticent at first, but opens with a bit of time to show a dark plummy fruit with an earthy edge. The wine is tannic and slightly rustic in nature, but with a bit of time to round out in bottle it should show well. Chanson has more than 5ha here planted to Pinot, and another 2ha to Chardonnay. The soils are fairly heavy clay, but the southeast-facing slopes ripen fruit well - some lots came in above 14.5%. The grapes are partially destemmed and gently fermented.
