Mas A Tierra Petite Empreinte Pinot Noir 2023

Where: Burgundy, France
Grapes: Pinot Noir
Body: Medium 
Category: Red Wine

Mas a Tierra is the old name for Robinson Crusoe Island, and it's typically the kind of bottle you'd want to take to a desert island... Pure, fruity, juicy and structured by fine tannins. A perfect wine, that has it all.

winemaking:  100% Pinot Noir. 2023 is the second vintage from this 40-are (0.4-hectare) plot of Pinot Noir on a western-exposed, Kimmeridgian limestone ridge minutes south of Saint Bris and west of Irancy. Planted in 1990 and farmed organically with low yields (35 hl/ha). The bunches are hand-harvested, left in whole clusters and spontaneously fermented with indigenous yeasts in barrique with a 25-day maceration and one or two punchdowns.The wine is aged for a year in barrique--only one barrel is produced--without racking and is bottled without filtration. Zero sulfur is added to the wine.
