About 2004 Mongeard-Mugneret, Domaine Savigny les Beaunes les Narbantons Pinot Noir
About the Winery Mongeard-Mugneret, Domaine
Vincent Mongeard, the son of Jean, who is as passionate as his
ancestors, is committed not only to maintain and improve the family
patrimony, but also to expand it, when their is an opportunity, this to
winden the variety of the Domaine. The property accounts today for
approximately 23 hectares, spread on 28 different appellations
producing white Burgundy and Puligny- Montrachet issued from the
Chardonnay grape, but also essentially red wines issued from the Pinot
Noir grape in the best climates (finages=vineyard area) of the Côte.
The vineyard is located in the mid-slope. Southeast orientation on a
chalk and clay soils. Respectful of the tradition, Vincent Mongeard
practices the vinification at the Domaine with the greatest care. The
grapes our destemmed completely except for the appellation Richebourg
for which we keep one third of the stems. The crop is then put in the
vats were the alcoholic fermentation will take place. Equiped with a
very sensitive sulphate- measuring pump, he practices a traditional and
moderate sulphating, nevertheless necessary because of the sulphurous
anhydride (SO²) which is a natural antiseptic preservative that allows
neutralising the development of bacteria. A moderate cool maceration of
between 4 to 5 days, depending of the vintage, allows to obtain the
extraction of the colouring matter, aromas and tannins. The start of
the fermentation process, being natural, it increases the temperature
and multiplication of the yeast. Under this effect, the sugar is
transform in alcohol by freeing carbonic gas, the must then turning
into wine.
