Monthelie Rouge Domaine Boisson Pierre 2021 is a classic Bourgogne Pinot Noir that highlights the elegance and finesse the village of Monthélie is known for.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, this wine typically shows a bright ruby color with a lively, translucent hue. The nose is delicate and inviting, with notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, violet, and subtle earthy spice. On the palate, expect a graceful and medium-bodied wine with supple tannins, fresh acidity, and a silky texture. The fruit is usually framed by gentle mineral and savory notes, giving the wine both charm and precision. While enjoyable young for its freshness, it should also develop beautifully over the next several years, gaining more depth and complexity with bottle age.

Production
Sourced from the limestone and clay soils around Monthélie in the Côte de Beaune, this wine reflects the cool, well-drained terroir that favors finesse over power. The grapes are typically harvested with care, often by hand in Burgundy, to preserve fruit quality and allow for rigorous sorting. Vinification follows the traditional Burgundian approach for Pinot Noir, with fermentation aimed at capturing delicate aromatics and the vineyard’s natural expression. Aging is commonly carried out in oak barrels, with a restrained use of new oak to support the wine without overwhelming its red-fruit character.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with roast poultry, duck, game birds, mushroom risotto, and dishes featuring earthy vegetables or light cream sauces. Serve at around 15–17°C for the best balance of fragrance and structure. Decanting is optional, but a short decant can help open the wine if served young.

Producer
Domaine Boisson Pierre is a traditional Burgundy estate associated with careful vineyard work and a style that emphasizes authenticity and terroir. Like many respected family domaines in the region, its strength lies in producing wines that are true to their appellation, with balance, nuance, and aging potential. Its reputation rests on steady quality and a classic expression of Burgundy craftsmanship.
