🏰 The 2020 Chandon de Briailles Cortons Les Bressandes Grand Cru is a 【broad and dramatic Pinot Noir, bursting with aromas and a deep core of fruit】 from a producer committed to organic and biodynamic practices. This magnificent Grand Cru, sourced from four parcels with 40-year-old vines on deep limestone and clay soils, is fermented with 100% whole clusters and aged for 18 months with a modest 15% new oak. It offers a rich and creamy nose of raspberries, plums, warm spices, raw cocoa, and loamy soil, with intriguing notes of iron, five spice, and dry stones. The palate is full-bodied, layered, and concentrated, showcasing a pure family of cherries harmonizing with blackberries and rose petals, framed by youthfully chewy yet fine tannins. Described as an "iron fist in a velvet glove," it promises significant upside with aging, with fruit density expected to grow over time. This wine will certainly reward bottle age. 🍴 This powerful and elegant Burgundy pairs beautifully with roast white meats, meaty fish, or dishes with red sauces. 🥂 A magnificent choice for a grand dinner, a significant celebration, or a serious Burgundy tasting, promising a memorable experience.
