True to its name, the incandescent one has its vibrant hue due to a short maceration (16 hours) on skins before pressing. This is 100% Pinot Noir from the Grand Cru lieu-dit of Les Cumaines, and entirely from the 2018 vintage despite its NV tag.

The Rosé was vinified entirely in stainless steel, and spent 30 months on lees before being disgorged with just 1.5 g/L in January 2022.

Reviews

“Very dark coloured and vinous style. Almost like looking at Etna Rosato! Supple texture, almost silky, bubbles are really fine and gentle, almost missing but for lifting the wine brightly and some saline tang alongside all this. Rich, red fruited, some truffle notes, briar and brambles. What a cool wine! Really interesting and complex, is the message.”
95 points, Mike Bennie, The Wine Front
