This terroir, with its variations in microclimates, allows for the production of wines of great aromatic complexity. Each plot is cultivated with care, respecting the environment, in order to reveal the full richness of this prestigious appellation.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine Pierre Girardin is carried out in accordance with Burgundian traditions. The grapes, carefully harvested by hand, are destemmed before being placed in vats. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature control. Aging then occurs in oak barrels, some of which are new, for 12 to 15 months, in order to impart a subtle oak influence without masking the fruit. This meticulous process aims to preserve the integrity of the Pinot Noir while enriching the wine with complexity.
