Sourced from around the village of Béziers, Pas de Problème is an easygoing Pinot Noir. It’s fruit-driven, juicy, and unoaked yet deeply aromatic, with notes of mocha, thyme, and rosemary complemented by notes of raspberry, redcurrant and wild strawberry.
The Pinot Noir is sourced from vineyards in the Languedoc region, specifically the ancient hill-town of Enserune (15 mins southwest of Béziers). There, 30-year-old Pinot Noir vines are planted on southward-facing slopes of clay and limestone. The vines are farmed sustainably without chemicals, herbicides, or weed killers. The soil here resembles the famous ones found in Burgundy, guaranteeing optimal growth for this variety, with an emphasis on balance and minerality. Located 20 mins away from the Mediterranean Sea, the vines endure both oceanic and continental influence; hot days allow for sublime ripeness, while frigid nights help to preserve the natural freshness of the grapes. Spontaneous fermentation, aged in stainless steel for 9 months, unfined and unfiltered.
