Vignerons de Buxy: Bourgogne Pinot Noir

Bourgogne Pinot Noir

• Varieties: Pinot Noir
• Type: Red
• Region: Burgundy, France
• Alcohol Level: 13.0%

WIne Description:

This wine is made exclusively from the Pinot Noir grape. The grapevines are situated between Buxy and Saint Gengoux le National and are generally grown midway up the hillside. The soil is very shallow and ventilated. The heavily pebbled earth is ideal for the Pinot Noir.

The wine is aged first in stainless steel vats, then in oak barrels or casks. How long the wine is aged in casks depends on the vintage.

Tasting Notes:

With a fine, clean red colour with ruby glints, the nose opens on red fruits which are typical of Pinot Noir (blackcurrant, morello cherry and redcurrant) with hints of smoke, humus and sometimes animal touches. Rich and complex, this wine has a firm texture on soft, elegant tannins and a fine balance.
