Production of Let It Bee Pinot Noir by Ethic Drinks The grapes for this Pinot Noir come from selected parcels in Languedoc-Roussillon. Here, Mediterranean warmth meets fresh winds from the sea and the hinterland. The vines grow mainly on calcareous and clayey soils. These soils store moisture well and release it slowly, which greatly benefits the ripening of the grapes. The roots penetrate deep and bring fine mineral nuances to the surface. Pinot Noir is considered a demanding grape variety with thin skins and high sensitivity to site and climate. In Languedoc-Roussillon it shows a fruit-driven style with dense cherry aromas and soft tannins. The warm days promote ripeness and aromatic richness. The cool nights preserve the acid structure. This results in a wine with clear fruit, fine spice and elegant tension. The harvest is selective to bring only fully ripe, aromatic grapes into the cellar. In many parcels, this harvest is carried out by hand, bunch by bunch. Damaged or unripe berries remain in the vineyard. The harvested fruit is brought quickly to the cellar to avoid oxidation and loss of aroma. Gentle processing protects the delicate Pinot skins and preserves the fine character. In the cellar, gentle destemming is followed by a short maceration time. This phase brings color, aroma and structure from the berries into the must. Fermentation takes place under temperature control, mostly in stainless steel tanks. Co...
