Domaine Lécheneaut

This superb 10ha domaine was created in the 1980’s by Fernand, father of Philippe and Vincent who now run the domaine. The wines are very exciting and sumptious, brimming with expressive and beautiful Pinot Noir characters, with 30% whole bunch fermentation. The wines are aged for 12 months in barrel with 80% being supplied by Francois Frères.

The colour is pale blood red, the nose uplifted, fragrant and highly aromatic, with crunchy red fruits to the fore, supported by a lovely sweetness and sturdy wrap of tannins and fresh acidity.
Aged in barrels for 9 months, barrels aged from 1 year to 6 years old.
