Description
La Combe Pévenelle is a wine produced by Domaine Chantal Lescure, a renowned estate in Marsannay, part of the Côte de Nuits in Burgundy, France. This particular wine is crafted from Pinot Noir, the region’s signature grape. The wine undergoes a careful aging process, typically spending about 14-15 months in old oak barrels before being bottled without fining or filtration. Known for its elegant structure and savory character, La Combe Pévenelle showcases the delicate balance of ripe red fruit, such as cherries and raspberries, with earthy undertones typical of Pinot Noir grown in the limestone-rich soils of the Côte d’Or.
The vineyard benefits from organic farming practices, with Domaine Chantal Lescure being certified organic since 2006. Winemaking at the estate is minimalist, avoiding herbicides and focusing on manual work in the vineyard. This allows the terroir to shine through in their wines, reflecting the Marsannay appellation’s cool climate and complex soils. La Combe Pévenelle is a versatile option for pairing with game birds, such as duck or goose, and hearty dishes.
