2022 Domaine Jean-Noël Gagnard Bourgogne Hautes Côtes De Beaune Rouge "Clos Bortier", Burgundy, France
The 2022 Bourgogne Hautes Côtes de Beaune Rouge "Clos Bortier" from Domaine Jean-Noël Gagnard is an expressive and refined Pinot Noir, offering aromas of bright red cherry, wild raspberry, and delicate floral notes, with a touch of earthy spice. The palate is fresh and lively, with silky tannins and a crisp minerality that leads to a long, elegant finish.
ABOUT THIS WINE
Crafted from sustainably farmed vineyards in the Hautes Côtes de Beaune, "Clos Bortier" reflects the terroir’s cool climate and limestone-rich soils. Fermented with indigenous yeasts and aged in a combination of neutral oak and stainless steel, this wine showcases purity of fruit and a classic Burgundian balance between freshness and structure. A versatile and approachable expression of Pinot Noir, it is perfect for early enjoyment but has the finesse to develop with short-term cellaring.
