Looking for Burgundian style Pinot Noir without the steep price tag those wines now carry? Then this is your wine! A warm, dry, sunny 2022 vintage in the Loire Valley imbued this incredible value Pinot an added level of depth and concentration, perfectly balance by moderate tannins, and acidity, lovely deep red and dark cherry fruit, and a bright, long utterly enjoyable presence from first whiff through the beautiful, long finish.
At under $20, it takes over where Bourgogne Rouge, now high $20s to mid $50s left off - simply a superb value in classic old world Pinot Noir. Perfect for grilled meaty fish, pork and chicken, duck, burgers, steak and frites and more! Price, quality, and overall delicious drinkability earn this wine a solid 96 on the Cree Value scale.
