Bourgogne Rouge Pinot Noir Couvent des Jacobins 2016 - Louis Jadot

The Bourgogne Rouge Pinot Noir AOC Couvent des Jacobins is the perfect introduction to "red Burgundy"! The typical aromas of morello cherries, berries and figs are deliciously refreshing, with full energy of warm spices and lively tannins produce a very aromatic fragrance, which shows notes of red fruit compote, blackcurrant blossoms and fine smoke. At a young age, the Bourgogne Rouge Pinot Noir AOC Couvent des Jacobins shines in a bright ruby red and develops elegant garnet reflections as it matures. The Pinot Noir grapes come from the entire Côte d`Or region with the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, the Hautes Côtes de Nuits, the Côte Chalonnaise and the Auxerrois. Traditionally, the wine is first fermented on the skins for three weeks. Afterwards, a quarter matures for ten months in used French oak barriques. In order to balance itself, the wine is finally stored for a short time in the stainless steel tank and is only then completely dissolved in the bottle. This pure drop goes perfectly with grilled or briefly roasted meat, duck breast, soft game dishes (roast hare) and medium strength cheeses (white cheese).
