Les Jamelles Pinot Noir

<h1>Les Jamelles</h1> <h2>Les Jamelles Pinot Noir</h2> <a href="http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/wine-pdf/les-jamelles-pinot-noir.pdf">Les Jamelles Pinot Noir</a> <h3>Grape Variety</h3> 100% Pinot Noir. <h3>General</h3> This is another example of the way in which Catherine Delaunay has transferred her family know-how to the South of France. This wine, which is produced in limited quantities, is quite different from preconceived ideas people generally have about Pinot Noir wines when the variety is grown away from its homeland. It is well worth discovering ... <h3>Vinification</h3> Cold pre-fermentation maceration lasting about a week, followed by one week's fermentation at controlled temperatures. 25% of the final blend is aged in oak barrels for 6 to 9 months. <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-bottle.jpg' alt='Bottle Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-label.jpg' alt='Label Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-food-and-wine.jpg' alt='Food and Wine Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-awards.jpg' alt='Awards Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-grape-variety.jpg' alt='Grape Variety Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-bottle.jpg' alt='Bottle Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-label.jpg' alt='Label Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-food-and-wine.jpg' alt='Food and Wine Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-awards.jpg' alt='Awards Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-grape-variety.jpg' alt='Grape Variety Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-bottle.jpg' alt='Bottle Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-label.jpg' alt='Label Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-food-and-wine.jpg' alt='Food and Wine Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-grape-variety.jpg' alt='Grape Variety Pinot Noir'> <img src='wine-picture/pinot-noir-les-jamelles-awards.jpg' alt='Awards Pinot Noir'> <h3>Tasting Notes</h3> Appearance: Dark colour, with ruby tints. Nose: Scents of red and black berries mixed with floral notes, together with hints of delicate wood and vanilla. Taste: On the palate, this wine is complex, rich, long and fat. It displays aromas of crushed black fruits (blackberries, blackcurrants, cherries) and jam. The tannins are plump and well-integrated. Unlike many Pinot Noirs grown in the Pays d'Oc, this wine is not dominated by heaviness or an excessive over-ripeness. <h3>Origin</h3> Since Pinot Noir is a northern variety, we have chosen our vineyards in the heights of the Aude Valley, in the foothills of the Pyrenees. The cooler climate, milder temperatures and rainfall here prevent the grapes from ripening too quickly. The vines have an average age of 10 years. They are pruned using the "cordon de Royat" (trellised) and "Guyot" (trellised) methods. Yields are relatively low, around 50 hectolitres per hectare. The clay and limestone soils on the terraces here are fairly similar to the soils of Pinot Noir's homeland. <h3>Awards</h3> - Robert Parker in the Wine Advocate August 2009 : 87/100 "distinctly delicious" - Wine Enthusiast 02/2007 : Best buy - 88 points - Wine Spectator 12/2008 : 85 points <h3>Food and Wine</h3> Recommended serving temperature: 17 - 18°C. This wine goes well with charcuteries, white meat (such as chicken with a cream sauce) and light cheeses. <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/index.php' title=""></a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/art-of-living.php' title="Art of living">Art of living</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/contacts.php' title="Contacts">Contacts</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/galerie.php' title="Galerie">Galerie</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news.php' title="News">News</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/ours-wines.php' title="Ours Wines">Ours Wines</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/presentation.php' title="Presentation">Presentation</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/press-room.php' title="Press Room">Press Room</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/production.php' title="Production">Production</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/the-pays-d-oc.php' title="The Pays d'Oc">The Pays d'Oc</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/winemakers.php' title="Winemakers">Winemakers</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-67-2009.php' title="2009...">2009...</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-47-cinsault-rose-les-jamelles-2005-gongratuled-by-the-second-wine-advisor-30.php' title="Cinsault Rosé Les Jamelles 2005 gongratuled by the second Wine advisor 30">Cinsault Rosé Les Jamelles 2005 gongratuled by the second Wine advisor 30</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-42-competition-chardonnay-du-monde-2007.php' title="Competition Chardonnay du Monde 2007">Competition Chardonnay du Monde 2007</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-56-concours-national-des-vins-de-pays-2008.php' title="Concours National des Vins de Pays 2008">Concours National des Vins de Pays 2008</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-culture-famous-people-georges-brassens.php' title="Culture - Famous people : Georges Brassens">Culture - Famous people : Georges Brassens</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-culture-famous-people-alphonse-daudet.php' title="Culture - Famous people Alphonse Daudet">Culture - Famous people Alphonse Daudet</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-57-decanter-2008.php' title="Decanter 2008">Decanter 2008</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-75-decanter-2009.php' title="Decanter 2009">Decanter 2009</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-34-expovina-2006-suisse-les-jamelles-viognier-2006-silber-medal.php' title="Expovina 2006 (Suisse) : Les Jamelles Viognier 2006 - Silber Medal">Expovina 2006 (Suisse) : Les Jamelles Viognier 2006 - Silber Medal</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/news-49-expovina-2007.php' title="Expovina 2007">Expovina 2007</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-recipe-le-cassoulet.php' title="Gastronomie - Recipe : Le Cassoulet">Gastronomie - Recipe : Le Cassoulet</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-recipe-anchoiade.php' title="Gastronomie - Recipe : Anchoïade">Gastronomie - Recipe : Anchoïade</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-recipe-stuffed-squid.php' title="Gastronomie - Recipe : stuffed squid">Gastronomie - Recipe : stuffed squid</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-restaurant-le-castellas-to-collias.php' title="Gastronomie - Restaurant "Le Castellas" to Collias">Gastronomie - Restaurant "Le Castellas" to Collias</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-restaurant-alexandre-to-nimes.php' title="Gastronomie - Restaurant : "Alexandre" to Nîmes">Gastronomie - Restaurant : "Alexandre" to Nîmes</a> <a href='http://www.les-jamelles.com/us/life-art-gastronomie-the-hand-in.php' title="Gastronomie - The hand in ..
