WINE MAKING PROCESS
Domaine Verret practices organic viticulture, though their vineyards are not yet officially certified. The Pinot Noir grapes are carefully harvested from their magnificent terroirs. To preserve the wine's inherent freshness and highlight the purity of the fruit and terroir, the vinification process is carried out in an unoaked style. This approach ensures that the delicate fruit, subtle floral notes, and evolving hints of spice are the stars of the show, allowing the terroir to shine through.
