Michel Magnien Bourgogne Pinot Noir
Michel Magnien Bourgogne Pinot Noir
In 1395 Philippe le Hardi forbade the cultivation of the Gamay and favoured that of the Pinot Noir to improve the quality of the wines. Red, white and rosé wines are produced as AOC Bourgogne. The regional appellation extends over more than 2,500 hectares from the department of the Yonne to the Rhône region and running through the Côte d’Or. Dom. Michel Magnien's plot is “1 hectare 07 ares 13 ca” and faces east. The vines are planted on marl soils.
Tasting Notes
Characteristically Pinot Noir on the nose, the Michel Magnien Bourgogne is peppery with lovely red fruit notes. Similar aromas are picked up on the palate, with nice acidity and silky tannins that melt into a fine, elegant finish. This pleasant-drinking wine has lovely balance and is best enjoyed young.
Food Pairing
A wonderful accompaniment to grilled salmon with dill and lemon.
