Pinot Noir Trésor de Maurice

Tribute to my grandfather Maurice Chermette, born in Légny at the locality known as Collonges, from which the name of the plot is derived. He worked the vines alongside my grandmother with great courage and determination. This cuvée, carefully crafted on a clay-limestone terroir, reveals all the elegance of Pinot Noir. Generous and charming, it delights with its intense red fruit aromas and finesse.
