Jean-Claude Boisset Bourgogne Pinot Noir Les Ursulines, Burgundy, France
| Vintage: | 2021 |
|---|---|
| Description: | Location: Pinot Noir owes its fame to its native soil of Burgundy, where it is the only variety used in practically all red wines. Furthermore, the region's temperate climate suits it down to the ground – it is no lover of hot, humid weather. The Côte de Nuits and Côte de Beaune produce some of the greatest Pinot Noirs in the world. Varietal(s): 100% Pinot Noir Winemaking: The grapes are destemmed but not crushed and transferred by gravity into a vat. Maceration lasts around 3 weeks. No yeast, enzyme or tannin is added. Aged in cask for 16-18 months, using under 20% new casks. Visual Aspect: Dark red, with deep purple reflections. Nose: Very open already, with ripe fruit notes. Palate: Good balance, with tannic support already evident but fairly subtle. Food Pairing: White meats in sauce, such as veal cutlets in cream, or spit-roasted rabbit. Aging: Ready for drinking now, but will retain all its qualities for at least 8 years. |
