Awards/Ratings

Burghound 90-92 (2014); Revue du Vin de France 17. 5/20 (2014). Retail tasting notes and merchant scores also praise its traditional structure and aging potential

Tasting Note

Dark cherry and plum with violet and liquorice, underpinned by forest-floor, iron and savory spice. Medium-bodied, supple texture, dusty tannins and a moderately firm, persistent finish that gains savory complexity with age.

Food Pairing

Western: roast lamb, beef bourguignon, duck confit, mushroom risotto, aged cow's cheeses; Asian: Peking duck, char siu or Cantonese roast pork, teriyaki salmon, miso‑glazed eggplant, shiitake stir‑fries.

Production Method

Hand-harvested Pinot Noir; traditional Burgundian vinification with long maceration, minimal destemming (producer historically avoids a destemmer), fermentation on indigenous yeasts and extended élevage (~18–24 months) in French oak.
