In the Glass — Tasting Notes
Aromatic finesse meets precision in this cool-climate expression. Red cherry and raspberry open on a silky palate, lifted by bright acidity, with dried herbs and earth keeping the wine in motion. At 12.5% alcohol, the tannin structure is delicate and never over-oaked—the kind that makes you reach for a second glass.
The Winery — Jean-Claude Boisset
Grégory Patriat oversees this Nuits-Saint-Georges négociant with a vineyard-led philosophy honed during his time at Domaine Leroy. Founded by the Boisset family in 1961, the house is now based at Les Ursulines, a former convent transformed into a gravity-fed winery. His 2021 release earned Jancis Robinson's praise for balance and refinement—qualities that flow through this 2024 vintage, where careful fruit selection and cellar work honour the appellation's character without pretension.
At Your Table — Food Pairing & Serving
Silky tannins and earthy undertones make this Pinot Noir a natural with roasted chicken, charcuterie boards where acidity cuts salt and richness, and mushroom or truffle dishes. Braised beef, pasta, and risotto all find their match here. This is Burgundy that tastes like Burgundy should: delicate, fruit-forward, and welcoming. If you're building a France collection around Pinot Noir, this stands as a natural anchor—one of the finest values in its category.
