A wine with depth and elegance. Expressive aromas of red berries and spices with some mineral elements. Soft in taste, with good concentration, silky texture and fine tannins. A wine for storage with great length in the taste.

Albert Bichot – Domaine du Clos Frantin – Gevrey Chambertin “Les Murots” is made from 100% Pinot noir harvested manually in 25 kilo harvest baskets. The grapes are transported to the vineyard as quickly as possible to prevent oxidation. The grapes then pass through a vibrating sorting table to remove any damaged berries or bunches. The grapes are destemmed to avoid excessive bitterness due to the tannins in the stems. The fermentation then lasts 20 to 28 days in thermo-regulated conical oak barrels. This makes it possible to control the fermentation temperatures, which directly affect the extraction of aromas and color. Finally, the wine is pressed through a gentle and selective press. The wine is bottled and then aged for over a year in the winery’s cellar in oak barrels (30 to 35% new barrels). The barrels have varying origins (wood from forests in Tronçais, Allier, Vosges). Their specific roasting and their age contribute to the search for aromatic complexity in the production of this great wine.
