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. Pair with meats cooked in sauce or grilled, such as a choice charolais filet, a burgundy fondue and strong cheeses (époisses, coulommiers...). With several years aging, it can be an excellent accompaniment to lamb, duck, and game.
