St Pierre Cotes Du Jura Le Rouge Pinot Noir/poulsard

Vintage: 2021
Description: The Jura region is one of France's smallest wine regions comprising just 2,500 hectares. Fabrice Dodane, owner of Domaine de Saint Pierre is part of a small group of discerning producers, which includes Jean-Francois Ganevat, who push the boundaries, making stunning, profound and complex wines. This cuvee comes from vines planted in 1981 to 1986. On the nose with dark spice, here the Trousseau is dominant, some black tea, a hint of tar, fennel and rosemary, that was just the first nose, develops great with air and shows great complexity. Tender, juicy and fresh on the palate, fine grip, much lighter and more delicate than the nose suggests, seems as if the Pinot would dominate here, berry, some plums and a fine spice, the tannin is delicate and ripe, great substance and a brilliant balance for this difficult year. 90% Pinot Noir, 10% Trousseau. Please decant for 25 minutes and serve in big Pinot Noir glasses.
