Les Allies, Pinot Noir Bourgogne, Burgundy, France, 2021

A fresh, bright Bourgogne Pinot Noir with ample cranberries, fresh mint and dusty gravel aromatics. The palate has an assemblage of bright, fresh red fruits, pomegranate, raspberry and cranberry give way to stony minerality, and plenty of savoury herbs buoyed by white peppercorn. It is a delicious, food-friendly wine that over-delivers for its price.
