Description

Producer note: Franck Follin has directed this 6 hectare enterprise since 1993. The Domaine owns some of the vineyards, rents most of the rest and though it does not do the vineyard work in the parcel of Romanée St. Vivant, it is responsible for the vinification and élevage (the vineyard work is done by Dominique Mugneret, who keeps the equivalent of two barrels for his effort). The approach is fairly traditional with 100% manual harvesting, triage work in the vineyard, 100% destemming with the fermentation occurring in wooden fermenters. There is a modified cold soak as the temperature is lowered to about 15 degrees Centigrade and then left to its own course. Punch downs are performed twice daily and there is an occasional pump over to ensure that the must remains uniform. The total cuvaison lasts approximately 12 days, followed by a 24 hour settling period and the new wine is then decanted into oak barrels, which range from 10 to 50% new and carry a medium light toast. The élevage period lasts for approximately 18 months. The whites (which include a Corton-Charlemagne) are filtered though the reds are not and in both colors there is fining only when warranted; note that the whites will be reviewed in Issue 31. (JAO Wine Imports, McLean, VA).

Tasting note: A moderately rustic and earthy nose offers up subtle vegetal and sauvage notes that lead to round and detailed medium full flavors underpinned by ever so slightly tough tannins and enough length to be interesting. This is very Aloxe in character with plenty of muscle on the firm finish.
