Bourgogne Rouge "Les Riaux" 2023 - Domaine Derain (50%)

A red wine from Burgundy made from Pinot Noir. The grapes come from the Les Riaux vineyard, which is particularly rich in minerals. Only half of the bunches are destemmed before alcoholic fermentation. Maturation takes place in exhausted wood for at least seven months, with limited use of sulphites at bottling. It is suited to poultry and feathered game. Ruby with purple reflections. The nose is intense, clean and elegant, with redcurrant, cherry, raspberry, spring flowers, undergrowth and a touch of sweet tobacco. On the palate it is lively, juicy and fresh, with rarefied tannin.
