Product Details:
- Country: France
- Varietal: Pinot Noir

Taste: In the glass, the wine shows a clear, bright ruby hue with light garnet reflections. Aromatically, it opens with wild strawberry, red cherry, and raspberry, accented by dried rose petals, a faint hint of licorice, and a touch of clove. The palate is medium-light in body, framed by soft tannins and lively acidity.
Pairing: This Pinot Noir’s bright red fruit and supple structure make it well-suited to classic bistro fare and simple, savory preparations. Try it with coq au vin blanc with mushrooms and pearl onions, or a roasted chicken with thyme and shallots, where the wine’s acidity refreshes the palate between bites.
