Vintage: 2024 (Bio Bourgon)
Grape variety: 100% Pinot noir
Average age of the vines: 20 years
Description: Typically, Pinot noir is a grape variety that is sought to be presented in a very "traditional" style where the typical fruity character of the grape is valued almost exclusively. In Furie, the approach is different. We wish to offer a Pinot noir with a more pronounced character without giving up the fruity notes that make this grape beautiful. To achieve this, we worked on an extended maceration of 16 days with daily punching down for the first 4 days, then more spaced out, in order to control the intensity of tannic extraction. This allowed us to create a wine that is a more "refined" Pinot noir. In addition to the long maceration, a short stay in oak barrels for a small fraction of the cuvée adds aromatic complexity as well as increased mouth intensity. These characteristics make Furie a wine well prepared for aging.
Tasting note by head sommelier Sarah Pagès:
"A perfect balance between power and finesse! The freshness is surprising! Notes of red and black fruits, a juicy wine, worthy of the greatest pinots in the region! Whether served slightly chilled around a summer barbecue, as an aperitif, or with a more wintery poultry dish, this cuvée is ready to take on any challenge!"
