2017 Nicolas Potel Pommard
| Description: | About Domaine Nicolas Potel\r\nAlong with Bordeaux and Champagne, Burgundy is one of the most well known vineyards in France. As well as climate and soil diversity, two exceptional varietals exist: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, from which the greatest red and white Bourgogne wines are created.\r\nMaison Nicolas Potel has built its international reputation by making wines from the most beautiful lands of the region. Our Villages, Premiers Crus and Grands Crus are famous and recommended all over the world since they reveal the purity of grapes, their authentic appellations and native lands.\r\nVinification\u00a0Grape harvest is a crucial moment: fruits are selected in order to eliminate unwanted grapes, and also to evaluate precisely the quality of the harvest. This will help us to work afterwards.\r\nDuring every wine making, we taste the cuv\u00e9es twice or three times a day, so as to follow their aromatic evolution. After winding removal, we softly press with a vertical wine-press, and then we settle the liquid before filling the barrels.\r\nA Traditional\u00a0Maturing\u00a0In cellar, we have chosen to avoid the maximum of interference, that is to say if one leaves the must to settle enough in a way of opting for a maturing of between 12 to 16 months on the fine lees, without racking and a minimum of SO2, a protection for the carbonic gas and a late malolactic fermentation. All our wines are drawn off just before bottling and blended in the vats in such a way that it will have the same uniformity in the bottle. The old fashioned racking: the wines are drawn off by the \u201cBroquereau\u201d, that is to say the opening is at the end of the barrel, with the aid of the funnel. That allows to push them without the aid of a pump and to finish offf the racking with a \u201ctastevin\u201d in order to be very precise on the brilliance of the wine. That is to say, well separated from the lees, and as important for the non-filtered.\r\nWe follow the bio-dynamic calendar and try to follow our wines in their style, either on root days in order to respect the best of their individuality |
