This Pinot Noir from Les Argelières is a vibrant and approachable red that showcases the finesse possible in southern France. The vineyards benefit from the cooling influence of the Montagne Noir, allowing the grapes to ripen fully while retaining freshness and delicacy.
Tasting Notes:
Bright ruby with violet glints, the nose reveals ripe summer berries, cherries, and subtle smoky and spicy notes, including black pepper and hints of vanilla. On the palate, the wine is soft and textured, with gentle, ripe tannins and a lively acidity that keeps it fresh. Layers of red fruit are complemented by a delicate floral nuance and a whisper of spice, finishing with a silky, lingering impression.
Winemaking:
Crafted under the guidance of oenologist Marilyn Lasserre, the grapes are carefully selected and vinified to highlight purity of fruit and varietal character. Light oak influence integrates seamlessly, adding subtle complexity without overpowering the Pinot Noir’s natural elegance.
Food Pairing:
A versatile companion to a wide range of dishes, from grilled poultry and roast pork to mushroom risotto or soft cheeses. Also delightful on its own for a light, elegant red experience.
ABV: 13%
