Native to Burgundy, Pinot Noir has shaped the identity of the region’s great red wines since 1375 and today represents 40% of Burgundy’s vineyard plantings.
A demanding and delicate grape variety, it reveals all its nobility through wines of great finesse.
Our Bourgogne Côte d’Or charms with aromas of small red and black fruits, strawberry, cherry, blackcurrant, and blueberry, along with silky tannins.
Elegant and generous, it pairs perfectly with poultry, meat pies, and pot-au-feu.
