Here the nose is really quite elegant with its assortment of red cherry, raspberry, lavender, violet and soft spice wisps

An exuberantly spicy nose combines notes of plum, dark currant, violets and underbrush. There is terrific intensity and a lovely minerality to the ripe and well-delineated medium weight

The nose shows a mass of fresh red fruit, concentrated and intense, with just the right ripeness. The palate is medium to full-bodied, ample and succulent, with a fleshy core of fruit and melting tannins

This Bourgogne Pinot Noir comes from the Magny lieu-dit, in the commune of Meursault. The vines are farmed with the same care as the estate’s great white cuvées, with naturally low yields
