Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a bright ruby color with a translucent, graceful hue. The nose is lifted and expressive, with red cherry, wild strawberry, cranberry, and subtle floral notes, often supported by earthy undertones and a touch of spice. On the palate, it is fresh and silky, with delicate tannins, lively acidity, and a clean, mineral-driven finish. The 2021 vintage in Burgundy is known for its freshness and classic profile, suggesting a wine that should be enjoyable in youth while also having the structure to develop further over the next few years. With cellaring, it may gain more savory depth, earthy complexity, and a softer, rounder texture.

Production
Sourced from Burgundy, this Pinot Noir benefits from the region’s cool continental climate and limestone-rich soils, which help preserve freshness and aromatic precision. Lafarge is known for careful vineyard work and a restrained approach in the cellar, aiming to express site character rather than heavy manipulation. Fermentation and aging are typically handled with an eye toward balance and transparency, allowing the fruit and terroir to remain at the forefront.

Food & Serving
This wine pairs beautifully with roast chicken, duck breast, mushroom dishes, veal, and lighter game, as well as soft cheeses such as Brie or young Comté. Serve slightly cool, ideally around 14–16°C, to highlight its freshness and aromatics. Decanting is generally not necessary, but a short airing in the glass can help the wine open up.
