Description

Sylvain Loichet - 2017

Entry level red Burgundy from a talented and experienced producer. Very attractive and expressive, with cherry and plum aromas and a well balanced ‘berries and cream’ lushness to the palate. Fruit forward there is a lot here to enjoy.

“We are lucky in Burgundy to have a multitude of appellations and very different terroirs, with many small parcels. We must let this mosaic express itself and seek a certain purity in the wine, a digestibility. A fine Pinot Noir, like a fine Chardonnay, must be delicate enough to make you want to finish the bottle.”

To achieve this result, Sylvain applies a simple recipe: manual harvesting, grapes handled with care, minimum intervention, precise élevage in used French oak barrels and bottling without fining or filtering. Sylvain’s 100% Pinot Noir Bourgogne Rouge is a wonderful example of a ‘humble’ appellation coming to life in the hands of a genius. Beautifully aromatic, offering plum, dark cherry and black raspberry fruit. Finely textured and noticeably fresh. Deftly handled. A delight.

ABOUT THE ESTATE

Domaine Sylvain Loichet is situated in the heart of Burgundy in Chorey-les-Beaune. Since Sylvain took over the reins in 2004, many changes have been implemented, the most significant of which is the conversion to organic viticulture, in order to preserve the terroirs, the ecosystem and the health of the consumer. He strives to produce the healthiest grapes possible in order to limit the work needed during vinification, thus producing pure wines that reflect their true origins.

When he started working at the end of 2004 (after studying at the Beaune wine school and gaining experience in both Bordeaux and California), the family vineyards were fully rented out in tenant farming or sharecropping. He was then just 22 years old. Not only did he decide to take back his own vines to cultivate himself, but he focused on conversion to organic viticulture. He started out with just 3.5 hectares – a surface area that today has increased to 10 hectares through acquisitions or rentals, spread over a dozen appellations. Of these 10 hectares, everything is certified organic or being converted. “Bio [organic] was immediately obvious to me,” he says. “It was a personal conviction, for the sake of leaving a clean floor for future generations, not to self-poison with chemicals, to produce clean and healthy wines, striving to achieve the strict reflection of the terroirs that we have the chance to work “. “We are lucky in Burgundy to have a multitude of appellations and very different terroirs, with many small parcels. We must let this mosaic express itself and seek a certain purity in the wine, a digestibility. A fine Pinot Noir like a fine Chardonnay must be delicate enough to make you want to finish the bottle. “To achieve this result, Sylvain Loichet applies a simple recipe: manual harvesting “at maturity, always”, grapes handled with care (small crates, work by gravity, never pump), vinification in vats with a minimum of intervention, and precise élevage (12 to 18 months for whites, up to 24 months for Grand Cru reds, 50% maximum of new oak), without forgetting, of course, the benefits of organic viticulture/winemaking.
