*Pick up orders are available next day for pick upThe Sorin-Coquard estate has been a winegrower for several generations, and today cultivates 25 hectares in the commune of Saint Bris le Vineux, spread over the appellations Bourgogne Côtes d’Auxerre red, white and rosé, Bourgogne Aligoté, Saint Bris and Irancy. The family business mainly produces wines on clay and limestone soils which give the wines a nice freshness and a great minerality.
On the estate, the grapes are harvested mechanically, and since the 1995 vintage, the pneumatic presses enable an optimum extraction of the juice without too much “bourbe” (cells in the pulp).
After a static settling of 18 hours, the vinification is carried out in stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeasts (present in the grapes) at a controlled temperature of 18 to 20°C. The wine is aged on its lees after malolactic fermentation for between two and five months, depending on the year.
