Roc Breia Pinot Noir 2022 Magnum
- TASTING NOTE: âThĂ©o Dancer's 2022 Pinot Noir is rather deep and muscular this year, opening in the glass with aromas of plummy fruit and sweet spices, followed by a medium to full-bodied, deep and primary palate framed by sweet, powdery tannins. It's matured in used 500-liter barrels.â 92 Points - William Kelley, The Wine Advocate
-
ABOUT THE WINE: The Roc Breïa Pinot Noir vines are a touch younger than the Chardonnay vines and were planted between 1970 and 1985. This wine is vinified with some 50% whole bunch, followed by maturation in used 500-litre barrels. The wine is bottled unfined and unfiltered and the only sulphur added is at bottling: a tiny 20 mg/L.
ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Roc BreĂŻa is run by the driven and ambitious ThĂ©o Dancer, now also the main man at Domaine Vincent Dancer. In 2021, ThĂ©o was invited to visit a mature vineyard in the Bray district of the MĂąconnais. The vineyard had recently been purchased by two investors, one of whom was the courtier who used to sell the vineyardâs crop in the past. The vineyard (pictured above) is a 10-hectare block on a limestone slope. Dancer immediately saw the potential and agreed to manage the project, but only on the condition that he would control the whole affair. The name of the new project is Roc BreĂŻa. Taking over immediately, with the help of full-time vigneron Bastien CubillĂ©, Dancer has begun to sculpt the vineyard up to his standards, bringing the soils and vines back into balance, planting cover crops and cultivating inter-vine, etc. In the cellar, winemaking is very simple. The wines are results from a selection of the finest barrels, with Dancer eliminating anything he doesnât like from the final blend.Â
