Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2019 Domaine Dureuil-Janthial

Domaine Dureuil-Janthial is a highly acclaimed domaine in Rully, Côte Chalonnaise. Vincent Dureuil, the current owner, inherited the business from his father in 1994 at the age of 24. For a quarter of a century, he has enhanced Rully's reputation through organic farming and terroir-focused winemaking. He meticulously manages his approximately 20 hectares of vineyards, treating each plot as if it were his own garden, and also consults the lunar calendar for cultivation. This is an entry-level cuvée, crafted from carefully selected grapes from across the Burgundy region, embodying the essence of the domaine's philosophy.

Tasting Notes

The color is a vibrant, clear cherry red. The aroma gently presents notes of red berries, pomegranate, and a hint of spice. On the palate, it is juicy with a pleasant freshness from the acidity, and fine-grained tannins gently support the fruit flavors. The finish is of moderate length, characterized by an unpretentious approachability. This wine can be enjoyed immediately after opening, offering an easy way to savor the unique character of Rully's terroir.
