The most Burgundian of the four reds, this wine is always a crowd-pleaser.
"Classic Pinot aromas jump out of the glass, and the nose is soft, dominated by sweet spices. The palate offers red berries and rose petals. There was a touch of reduction on the finish, a good sign for ageing."
France is without doubt the world’s supreme wine-producing country, unmatched for the finesse, style and sheer diversity of its wines. France’s revered wine regions form a roll of honour beyond compare. The enduring appeal of France’s classic wine styles turns on the peculiarly French – and often controversial – concept of terroir, the belief in wine with a ‘sense of place’, with flavours and textures.
