A wine of formidable presence and understated power, Tout Prés is born from one of the estate’s most remarkable sites. Planted in 2001 at 7,300 vines per hectare, this densely planted vineyard rises above its neighbours, its three distinct slopes spanning black volcanic soils over limestone, quartz gravel and red ironstone, and iron-rich grey sandy loam. The result is Pinot Noir of extraordinary depth, complexity and structure.
Fermented with 100% whole bunches in a five-tonne oak fermenter and matured in 100% new French oak from Allier, Tout Prés has the concentration and architectural integrity to absorb its élevage without losing sight of its origins. Expect layers of dark cherry, wild spice and earthy minerality, framed by fine, commanding tannins and a long, unfolding finish. There is richness here, but never excess; power, but never weight. Its signature is the interplay of intensity, precision and restraint.
A wine of quiet authority and exceptional longevity, Tout Prés is the peacock’s tail in full flight: expansive, composed and unmistakably iconic.
