Domaine Rene Monnier Bourgogne Pinot Noir is a full-bodied, ripe berry-scented Pinot Noir from this Meursault estate. The wine is aged in barriques (40% new) for up to 16 months, to add softness and complexity.
Domaine Rene Monnier is a Meursault estate, that has remained in the same family for 10 generations. The vineyard area extends 16.5 hectares across the entire Côte de Beaune, and the estate only makes wine from its own grapes.
Vineyard work is very traditional, with frequent ploughing used instead of herbicide treatments. Grapes are hand-harvested and there is a strict selection of grapes on sorting tables both in the vineyard and at the winery.
Once matured, the finished wines are gently filtered, using only gravity, so that the wines are not subjected to undue stress.
