From: Burgundy, France
Varietal: Pinot Noir
Taste: "A ripe and full-on nose speaks mostly of various dark berries and pungent earth aromas. The succulent, round and delicious middle weight flavors possess good volume for a wine at this level, all wrapped in a lingering and lightly rustic finale. To enjoy young." –Burghound
Pairing: The bold finesse of this Pommard-sourced Bourgogne Rouge calls for more substantial pairings, including magret duck, duck confit, other roasted game birds, pork chops, and strong cheeses such as époisses. To make your own recommend Daniel Gritzer's Sous Vide Duck Confit recipe.
About. Jobard's 2020 Bourgogne Rouge is a blend of four lieux-dits (1.5 ha) in Pommard: L’Aumônne, Taupe Maison Dieu, En la Taupe, and Les Crenilles. The hand-harvested fruit is destemmed and cold soaked for five-days, followed by 10 days of fermentation. Finished wines are bottled unfined and, in some vintages, lightly filtered.
