✨ Technical Specifications
Mark Haisma's Bourgogne Pinot Noir is a masterclass in capturing the vibrant, energetic spirit of Burgundy with a touch of New World precision. Sourced from carefully selected parcels across the region, including vineyards near Gevrey-Chambertin, this wine pays homage to the ancient monastic traditions of Burgundy, where Cistercian monks first mapped the complex terroirs of the Côte d'Or. Haisma employs low-intervention winemaking techniques, often incorporating partial whole-cluster fermentation and aging in seasoned French oak barrels. This approach coaxes out the classic, delicate perfume of the Pinot Noir grape, resulting in a wine that balances bright red berry fruit with subtle earthy undertones, fine-grained tannins, and a refreshing mineral finish.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded by Australian-born winemaker Mark Haisma, a former protégée of Bailey Carrodus at Yarra Yering, this boutique domaine and micro-négociant is headquartered in Gevrey-Chambertin in the heart of Burgundy. Transitioning from the Yarra Valley to France in the late 2000s, Haisma combines Old World terroir sensitivity with New World dynamism across selected parcels in the Côte de Nuits, Côte de Beaune, and the Rhône Valley. His winemaking philosophy centers on low intervention, judicious use of whole clusters and neutral oak, and minimal sulfur, allowing site specificity and natural acidity to lead the profile. Renowned for wines ranging from serious Grand Crus like Bonnes-Mares to irreverently named cuvées like 'A Bogan in Bogandy', the portfolio is celebrated for its pristine fruit purity, textural tension, and authentic sense of place.
