Domaine du Vissoux (Pierre-Marie Chermette) Description
A masterful 5th generation grower, Pierre has maintained the strict traditions of his ancestors and of the region, with more tenacity than most. Despite fashions changing, Pierre has, for his entire life, adhered only to the classic methods handed down from his family. This means farming in as sustainable a manner as possible, only using indigenous yeasts for every wine, long fermentations and making whole-cluster (semi-carbonic) wines in the old foudres built by his great-grandfather.
Pierre Chermette's yields are so low and the grapes so naturally ripe that he does not chaptalise. The wines are bottled with little or no filtration and the addition of no sulfur or very little depending on the cuvée.
Wine Advocate: 93 Points
Another successful cuvée is the 2021 Moulin-à-Vent Les Trois Roches, a supple and harmonious wine redolent of wild berries, spices, rose petals and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, ample and enveloping, with tangy acids and melting tannins, it concludes with a sapid finish.
