Bénédicte & Stéphane Tissot
Sous la Tour Pinot Noir


Boldly and marvelously fragrant, with ripe cherry, blackberries, almond paste, cinnamon stick, and hints of cloves, spicy mint, and warm tires on the nose. Dark cherry, juicy plum, raspberry on the palate with notes of milk chocolate giving way to sharp scratchy mint-tea tannins and a hint of bacon fat emerging with black peppercorns on a long finish. Very well done and interesting. Excellent value

The bottle is empty. Say it ain’t Tissot!! So good, a favorite producer for sure, love it all. This wine has an incredible nose. Clear and strawberry compote.
