Bourgogne Cotes d'Auxerre Rouge "Ma Pierre" Rouge 2021 | Clément Lavallée

This new domaine impresses us with an ecologically responsible ethos and mouth watering wines perfect for entertaining.

Young Lavallee farms of 5.5 hectares without relying on chemicals (managaed by Clement and his Sister Caroline).

Not easy work in a region known for persnickety weather.

We're excited to have some of their wine to share, because it's pristine and food friendly.

From a south-facing slope planted to 40-year-old vines of Pinot growing on White clay.

Pre-fermentation cold maceration for three days. Total maceration 18 days. Pumping over occurs twice a day at the start of native yeast fermentation, with some pigéage at the end. The wine undergoes natural malolactic fermentation. It ages in neutral barrels on the fine lees for 18-19 months and is bottled unfiltered.

 Very limited quantities.
