Trois Cépages, Arbois,

Delightful, jewel-like fruit bounces across the palate. Mouth-watering and juicy, this offers engaging, peppery red berry with a gentle spice touch. A wine of crystalline purity that is so easy to drink.. This is the historic red cuvée from Domaine du Pélican, produced since their inaugural vintage, in 2012. A blend of Pinot Noir, (60%), Trousseau (35%) and Poulsard (5%), hence the name Trois Cépages. The vineyards from which this cuvée is produced are all located in the village of Montigny-les-Arsures, where the winery also sits. The soil consists of grey and black marls, partially covered with fallen rocks. The vineyards broadly face West, at an altitude between 300 and 400 metres. Elevage is in Burgundy barrels (55%) and the rest in foudres.
