RATINGS

93Wine Spectator

What a beauty. Solid as a rock and both firm and velvety, showing great complexity and tons of berry, plum and chocolate characteristics that come together on the almost sweet finish...

...rich, concentrated and delicious medium weight flavors that, like the nose, are complex but not refined, culminate in a long, mouth coating and focused finish...capable of holding its own for several more decades without a problem.

REGION

France, Burgundy, Côte d'Or, Côte de Beaune, Beaune, Les Marconnets

Les Marconnets is a 14-acre Premier Cru vineyard in the Beaune appellation, in Burgundy’s Cote de Beaune. The vineyard is located at the northern end of the appellation near the top of a slope.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir, 1er (Premier) Cru

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
