Named after Bertrand’s star sign and made from selected Pinot Noir grapes grown on a range of family vineyards in the Cote de Nuits villages and the Cote de Beaune including tiny parcels in famous villages such as Beaune, Pommard & Volnay and Marsannay, the wines have been aged separately in 500 litre oak barrels for 15 months before blending together and undergoing further ageing in barrel and then in bottle. The wine is something of an unusual example of a Burgundy at this level and is only made in the best vintages but is no less successful for that. Note: the wine is bottled under screw cap to avoid any trace of oxidation and so is perfect for serving now, preferably having been decanted beforehand.
