Aroma: cool minerality, cherry, red and black berries

Palate: complex refined fruit

The producer describes this premier-cru Pinot Noir as cool-mineral with fine cherry and berry notes on the nose, juicy, cool and elegant on the palate with invigorating fine acidity, a Pinot Noir with considerable grip, depth and length.

What it pairs with

  • Roast duck breast
    Elegant, cherry-driven Pinot fruit is a classic duck match.
  • Mushroom risotto
    Earthy Pinot character complements mushroom dishes.
