Intense bouquet of red fruits with notes of licorice, cacao and vanilla. A bold and structured Pinot Noir with firm and ripe tannins. Medium-bodied with soft acidity. Flawless balance.

The Producer:

This Domaine certainly is old-school Burgundy: its origins, its style of wines, its attachment to traditions... Arnaud Machard de Gramont and his two sons care for their small estate with skill and diligence. The winery is an old building that looks more like a medieval church than a fermenting room. The wines age in oak barrels in underground galleries with vaulted arcades. There is something sacred in Burgundy, and at Machard's you can't miss it.
