Françoise André - Beaune « Montée Rouge » 2017

Burgundy

Red

Sold individually

Drink or Keep

pinot noir
end
powdery tannins

Impressive for the carmine purity of its juice, "La Montée Rouge" takes quality up another notch. The juice is fine and melted into silky Côte de Nuits tannins. The nose is reminiscent of budding roses and peony. The impression it leaves is that of a wine without artifice, to be drunk on its own or as an accompaniment to a dish.
