Tasting note
The 2022 Pinot Noir Cuvée 909 is not the same profile as the 2021, as the years were very different. It's the domaine Pinot Noir and comes from Pinot Droit vines planted in 1998 in the lieu-dit En Beuzard in the neighboring village of Ménetru-le-Vignoble on limestone soils that are not that different from those in Burgundy. It was produced with an old style of winemaking (destemmed) but without using any added sulfur. It fermented with 50% full clusters and matured in a pièce (600 liters) that had been used for Trousseau before for around 18 months. It's a little riper, despite having the same alcohol on the label (13.5%), and there's a touch of meat, iron and earth. It has a medium-bodied to full-bodied palate with grainy tannins and good balance. 5,000 bottles were filled in November 2023.
