2022 Pierre Mayeul, Bourgogne Pinot Noir

Description

ABOUT THE PRODUCER. Pierre Mayeul is the story of three old friends united by the same passion for Burgundy and with a shared goal to produce high-quality wines where each cuvee beautifully represents the individual terroir and ‘climat’ of each appellation. Each with a long history of Burgundian winemaking they vinify their wines in an old castle in Ladoix and age the wines in barrels in cellars that date back to the 17th Century situated in the very heart of Beaune.. TASTING NOTES. The nose offers a delightful medley of fresh red fruit, subtle violets, and a hint of spice. Gentle oak ageing contributes undertones of vanilla and toasty nuances. This approachable Pinot Noir is medium-bodied on the palate with velvety tannins and refreshing acidity. Flavours of ripe strawberries, raspberries, and a touch of black pepper create a harmonious balance, leading to a smooth, lingering finish.. FOOD PAIRING. For an inventive twist, pair this Pinot Noir with a beetroot and goat cheese risotto, allowing the earthy flavours to complement the wine’s vibrant fruit notes. Alternatively, consider a seared tuna steak with a pomegranate and fennel salad, Also an excellent companion to a Thai red curry with roasted duck or a hearty vegetable lasagna with a béchamel sauce..
