Red Burgundy

Red Burgundy wine is the epitome of elegance: often bottled in stylish flasks with modest labels, but grand in character. Almost always made from the refined Pinot Noir grape, known for its subtle power, lively acidity and delicate fruit expression. In Burgundy, the motto less is more applies — no heavy tannins or overripe fruit, but a refined balance of fresh red fruit, earthy notes, floral hints and a silky structure. A beautiful example is Domaine de la Luolle near Givry: a rising organic estate producing elegant red Burgundies with pure character and crisp freshness. Pinot Noir is the soul of red Burgundy and reveals a different face in each area: velvety smooth in the Côte d’Or, fresher and fruitier in the Côte Chalonnaise, and further south — the Mâconnais — sometimes blended with Gamay for supple, light reds.

Expect aromas of cherry, raspberry, violets, herbs, humus and a fine minerality. Often pale in colour but intense in experience — perfect with charcuterie, as an elegant dinner wine or as an affordable alternative to the classic Côte d’Or stars.
