I have a thing for Pinot Noir (whether red or rose) from Sancerre. They’re delicious in the summer. This one has intense limestone-infused dark cherry fruit, and a little sousbois in the nose. Focused and fairly concentrated in the mouth, it’s got low-toned dark cherry fruit that quickly turns dry, savory, a teensy bit herbal and quite minerally in the mouth. Some tannin left that softly coats the palate as the finish proceeds. Love it.

A bit strong at first sip, better when allowed to air for a bit. Nice smooth red with a raspberry bouquet and a charcoal finish. Light enough to pair with chicken and cheese yet rich enough to pair with an after dinner chocolate.

Drank 5/12/23 at Aragosta, super light pinot noir meant to pair with the second half of the menu. Great quality, but maybe too light for duck.
