Palate
Fragrant and distinctly Burgundian: rose and floral notes alongside black cherry and raspberry. Lighter in colour than the Bordeaux wines around it, but smooth, savoury and full of flavour rather than thin.

What it’s like
Monster Notes
After all those Pauillacs, something completely different. 😂 This is Pinot Noir — lighter, more fragrant, more delicate. Don't expect a big Bordeaux punch. What I like is that there's plenty of flavour without heaviness, which makes it very easy on an Asian table. Roast duck, chicken, mushrooms… this one quite versatile.
