Les Horees Catharina Sadde
DUE TO THE EXCLUSIVITY OF THIS WINE WE CAN NOT APPLY ANY FURTHER DISCOUNTS.
Catharina is undoubtedly one of the rising stars of Burgundy. Following her winemaking degree in Germany, Catharina has gone on to train within some of the world’s most iconic estates, such as Domaine Romanee Conti, Cecile Tremblay, Comte Armand, and Marquis d'Angerville.During these years of tutelage, she has diligently purchased various small parcels across Burgundy, notably in Volnay, Beaune, and Pommard. Alongside a few other plots that she rents, Catherina follows biodynamic principles and grows Chardonnay, Aligoté, Pinot Noir, and Gamay.
It is fair to say that Catherina's winemaking style is very much hands-off, allowing her meticulous farming and the health of her vines to speak for themselves. Despite so many natural challenges in Burgundian grape growing, Catherina's vineyards are flourishing and she is able to release wines that almost never need any sulphur additions.Stylistically, her wines offer up intense concentration, depth, and terroir expression. Her premier crus are made to go the distance and we recommend some additional cellaring time before cracking into them!
A 50/50 blend of Gamay and Pinot Noir, vinified separately before being brought together shortly before bottling. The Gamay comes predominantly from Morgon, from vines between 20 and 60 years old on weathered granite, with a small proportion from Les Horées’ own 80-year-old vines in Pommard. It is fermented as 100% whole bunches without sulphur, while the Pinot Noir, sourced from the Mâconnais, is fully destemmed. The two varieties are aged separately for 12 months in barrel and stainless steel before blending. Bright and immediately approachable, combining juicy red fruit with fine structure, freshness and gentle spice.
