From the war,m calcareous marl soils of the Grand Cru Pferisgberg, the 2013 Pinot Noir Grand P was harvested on the 2nd of October with 42 hl/ha, due to a new parcel with younger vines. Fermented with 40% whole clusters and aged for 17 months in 25% new oak barrels, the wine opens slightly reductive on the nose, but is very clear and fresh in its deep and dark-toned fruit aromas of ripe black cherries. Very intense and highly delicate on the silky textured palate, this is a full-bodied, super elegant and sapid Pinot, an Alsatian Volnay if you like to follow Maurice's opinion. The wine is provided with beautifully-ripe, red fruit flavors, fine tannins and very good aging potential. “The most Burgundian Pinot we produce,” says Maurice Bathelmé.
