In his previous life, Bruno Lorenzon was working as a consultant for a cooper. He takes over the familial estate in Mercurey in 2017 and starts working on improving the quality. His knowledge of the barrels allows him to conceive each piece for a specific terroir or a particular vintage. His Chardonnays and Pinots are starting to be really sought after, a future big name in Burgundy.
On a 1,4 hectares plot, Bruno Lorenzon tailors a Pinot Noir aged 13 months in barrels (including 25% new oak). Gorgeous fruity aromas underlined by the wood. Nice balance on the palate, with ferm tanins in its youth. Forget it in the cellar for a while.
