Pinot La Douve

White wine

The Pinot la Douve is made of Pinot Gris, Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir. The alcohol percentage is 12%.

This wine is an assembly of Pinot varieties. The name La Douve is derived from the Douve Valley next to our vineyards, where the Douve has its source.

A fresh, aromatic and elegant wine with length and tension. It has a broad potential since it can be served as a great aperitif or with fish or poultry. 

Vintage: 2023
